Won two trailers Huntsville Al. Post purchse inspection?

[AMX]

I was high bidder today on a auction. Description says 2 M105a2's, picture are 1 M105 a2 and a M101. I can see the auction numbers on the M105 but cannot be certain about the numbers on the possible M101. Should I try to have someone give them a post purchase inspection? I am a 1st time GL buyer

Let's see what ya got.

 

[AMX]

Heres some.

 

[drgreg]

Both M105's

Nice Score.

How far away are you for the recovery?
How much $$$ ?

 

[AMX]

Well good,I guess I can sell one and keep the other for the M35a2 I still havent bought!

 

[hwcurtice]

Nice Score.

How far away are you for the recovery?
How much $$$ ?

Looks like he's about 220 miles away, by roads. I see why he wants someone to check them out before heading down there.

Nice looking trailers though. Wonder whats under that canvas?

And what he said: $$$?

I'll be going by there probably next week, if I see them i'll peek at them for you.

How do you plan to get two trailers home at once? Do you have a car or equipment trailer to haul them home with? Some guys have gotten GL to flip one trailer onto the other. That is a lot of weight to haul with a civvy truck, though. Congratulations on the score. They look like really nice trailers.

I hope to sell one so I only have to haul one home. I guess i will do whatever it takes. I wish they had a one trailer auction, but they were all pairs.

Take one to a scrap yard near by(depending on what you paid) and grab the good stuff off it. Tires, lights, etc, and scrap it. Then take the other home.

That would hurt my feelings, but not as bad as making 2 trips!

I may be up there next week.....it may take a while for your EUC to clear.

I do recoveries from Redstone and can pick up two trailers at once.

PM me the info and if MD doesn't make it up there I'll scope it out for you.

I've been getting M200s for under $200, taking parts and scraping them.

 

[Bighurt]

I have the 2 most expensive M105's on the planet...can't afford to scrap them...

Not planning on it either. Both will be refurbished...

I am a heavy equipment (Truck) appraiser. During accident investigations I sometimes have to dispose of the salvage vehicles. Today I called two place, one had scrap at $10 per 100lb. and the other at $11.50, that would take some of the sting out of scrapping one since they weigh nearly 3k lb's.

 

[gimpyrobb]

Yup, M200s are about 2450lbs. I get 4 free tires and some other crap.

 

[drgreg]

Load them up and bring them home, they will be worth more than scrap soon.
