10 ton value?

[TadB]

I have found three 10 ton tractors. Two run well and one is a parts truck. I have no idea what they are worth. The two running trucks were used by a logging crew to pull log trailers to the paved road. Both truck are in pretty good shape, but both are missing their winches. My question is what are they worth and are they street legal. I think i can buy all three truck for $3000. The logger is going out of business. Any feedback would be much appreciated. I also have a m274-a5 mule for sale. I'll try to get some pics of the trucks and the mule up this afternoon.

I say go for it. If you sell even one truck it would cover the initial 3k.

I'm interested in his question about being street legal. Can you drive those puppies on the road?

yes you can, i think the rear duals have to be removed, singled out to make the truck narrow enough to be legal.....

i think....

You can get them legal with the duals on. You do have to have an overwidth permit and wide load signs front and rear though.

Alright, I know i have been Slakc in this post for the last couple of months. Heres the low down if anyone is interested. I worked for the company that owned these trucks for several months before i went in the service. When i got out i went back and looked at them. they look ok, but i have only seen one of them run. they were used to pull tub grinders around sud-divisions that we had cleared. I talked to several of the mechanics that worked on them daily. They told me they are addicted to starting fluid and they have been run HARD. The initial $3000 dollar offer was excepted until they talked to the bank that they ave them up for collateral with. dont know what went on there. If anyone is still interested pm me and i will give you all the contact info.

What is it with people and that dammned ether. Either it won't start cause it needs some tinkering or it does start, simple as that. A spray of boom in a can isn't the answer. That said i do use it sparingly around here as needed but 99% of the time is on gas engines where its far less harmful. The types that spray half the can into the intake of a deisel to get it going every morning are the guys that really grind my gears. Oh well, not my stuff so i suppose they can kill it if they want.
