pure awesomeness!

The guy who drove this in next to me bought it for $1500 IF he could remove it from the field it was in. $800 later with fresh fluids, tune up and brakes, he was driving it! Awesome!

The guy did have to do some hydraulic work to the dump box but man, it was just awesome watching this old school beast of a work truck pulling in! It in great shape too-used around the farm its whole life but never really abused.

Pretty cool.

They say our trucks, "Drive like a truck"

THAT truck, "DRIVES LIKE A TRUCK!!!!!"

Re: pure awesomeness!

If I could build my ideal car hauler, its be a tiltback flatbed version of this truck with a Vortex 8.1 and a 4L80E!

Re: pure awesomeness!

That is nice, If one of us brought that home our wives would fuss for a half hour and then figure out five projects that it could do around the place either hauling stuff away or hauling bark, rock or mulch home.

It's fun to pull into the scrap yard with one of those and back up and pop the lock and hit the lever and dump the whole load and drive out back over the scales while the other guys are throwing one piece at a time off.
