This last visit the guy had a convention to attend so he had to run. I walked and talked with his brother for a bit and then he let me wander the yard at my leisure, which was awful nice of him. Next visit I will be negotiating prices on these two 47's. I think they can be had reasonably. The guy is ready to sell. He and his brother have just accumulated quite a bit of stuff/junk over the years and its time to realize they're not going to get to it all. That's where I come in 2 Quote
RobertKB Posted March 27, 2017 Report Posted March 27, 2017 Keep us posted on the negotiations, please. Nice looking projects. Quote

I can't remember if it had a Cummins or a Detroit in it but it was constantly breaking down on him so he took it to a John Deere dealer that did a lot of Chrysler industrial engines for irrigation wells. They put a 413 in it and it ran like a raped ape. 1 Quote

There's so many trucks and old semis parked around the property its kinda crazy. A lot of those trucks are Dodges. I thought for sure you were talking about 48Dodger ... 1 Quote
