I was wondering what he was thinking when he said the piston wasn't moving until and down and he was looking in the spark plug hole! That engine could probably been saved don't know how bad the pitting was in the cylinder walls. Soak it in a 50/50 mix of atf and acetone , a last resort would be remove the piston in pieces. Not break the block apart! It all still amazes me. Im not hating on him stints or no stints!

He is a scraper.
One video shows how he uses a skil saw to cut up helo blades for the scrap yard.
Probably why he had no qualms about smashing the cylinder block with a hammer.
It is all just metal to be scrapped if it is too much effort to save.

It looks more like a Demolition Derby rather than a Cub Cadet Restoration! I bet he has a specialized hammer for each type of work he needs to do.

That Guy is a complete moron. I could only handle about 20 seconds of that. I happen to know a Guy that thinks a 20 lb sledge is his best friend, when some thing goes wrong with a piece of his equipment. Maybe pair them up and they could be the dynamic hammer duo.

The few scrappers I have know are a few cards short of a full deck.

Burning to much wire insulation will do that to anyone.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
