End of the line for what was once a nice 1970
After the sale of the engine and tranny yesterday there wasnt much reason to keep the old girl around anymore. A few hours on the aerial rack today and we got what was worth saving off of her and the rest loaded in the dump truck for the scrap yard. "Orange Crush" Rob had some trouble handling the drive "shaft" but managed to get it under control.

You have the right equipment for the job, no doubt.
That cab looks better than most that get repaired around here.

Re: End of the line for what was once a nice 1970
Between the bondo in the rockers and cab corners and the damage caused by the "slight" impact....it was NOT worth saving. Its all racked!
However...its not going to the scrap yard untill the end of the week or the following week.....so if someone wants it they can have it for scrap price and a 12 pack for the aerial lift operator.
