Restoring 7 Classic Victa Lawn Mowers Part 5 

Mmmm, I can smell that fresh paint all the way to Canada. You're making me thinking about restoring the '53 Briggs "reel type" mower out in the shed...

Wow Pierre - who'd have thought the a bunch of old lawnmowers could be so pretty?

That ceramic green is stellar. You should sell raffle tickets for these mowers, and raffle them off to viewers or Patreon supporters. Sign the tanks with the P.A. signature to top it off. Thoroughly enjoying this series!

Awesome, I like the way you used up paints you had sitting on the shelf and it all looks great.

Loving the colours! Reminds me of the smell of the acrylic lacquer I used for my EB’s guard and bumper...

Pretty surreal pete walking in the shed and seeing a victa chandelier

Loving the colour selection.

These mowers have better paint jobs then some of the cars i have owned.

Ahh 1970s Holden colours all that is missing are the GT stripes and the mag (alloy) wheels. The mowers look brilliant !

Fantastic range of colours. Great to have the 'Wow' factor when mowing the lawn 😄

Love the colours!

Think i give the mower a once over...... dam got carried away .... just starting on mine.. 1956 briggs

Remember when you could get "zoom" premix at the local BP servo.

wow beaut colours..

Wow victa heaven 😍 the paint prep an gloss look awesome, love the colour choices too suits them models👍

I have painted my early 70s Victa lawn edger with that Dulux hammer tone blue hides many sinces

Love the color choices, it’s like a 50’s color palette.

New RU-vid handle, Ando's Mower Resto Mods! (Or, how to make your Victa look sexy). Nice work, Look forward to seeing the XC completed.

Gorgeous! ✨👍😊

Shoulda let Rosie paint one.

Top vid Peter, cheers.

Peter, pop down to Clark Rubber. You have a field day. I was thinking around the skirt of the mower frame as a protector? but it is also great for door rubbers,window channels et etc

The silver colour looks like moonstone blue on a sierra cosworth.

Wow. I never knew mowers could look so good. After looking at my own, I am now ashamed.

Can you take us thru the paint gun setup pete?

I reckon they look really good, Peter. Not really industrial colours, but as you say, “Who cares”.

Great video Mr ANDERSON. The mowers look great. I want to buy a spray gun (top/gravity fed) for automotive restoration, do you have any recommendations? And what PSI do you paint with? Thankyou, keep up the good work

I've seen raised lines on tappet covers painted by dabbing with a sponge

sorry but that 18 is just fine. I really like it.

Hi Peter..great work mate.I also follow on youtube a Canadian bloke called Steve (Steves small engine saloon)..hes very switched on and I was watching one of his videos (The truth about why gas station fuel is bad for small engines) on youtube and it seems you are getting more and more into Victa two stroke world and I thought you would find his video very interesting....I also saw another comment online that said Premix was just actually Aviation fuel..what do you think?

Sorry Pete..They are just not mowers but fantastic machines and works of art.

Pete, will u use these mowers?? Or just sell them or just art work ??

When "Lawn Mower Hunters-Australian Edition" gets up and running...you will steal the show! Use the line "I really don't care how they look"...LOL You care too much to let them die in the crusher.

I guess the orange one is for mowing on wednesdays? ))

Gday Peter do you do work for individuals

Hi Pete, I still need to reply to your earlier email... will get on to it shortly, cheers..

My brother had a Torana in that gold. Looks better on the mower
