thomastractorsvc Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 If it wasn't a 8-9 hour drive I would probably go look at it and buy it but at todays fuel prices long way to go to find out just how bad of shape its in. Any one close to Covington TN??? Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

convoyduel Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I know that truck well. It is from St. Louis....Bridgeton, MO to be exact. The truck sat for probably 15 years. It's rough. Really rough. I believe it went thru the flood of '93 here in St. Louis on the sunless side of the waterline. It had a short water tank on the back. It went thru Ritchie Brothers auction in St. Louis in December of last year with the water tank for $5k. https://www.rbauction.com/1973-mack-rs795lst-ta?invId=7097816&id=ar Baskin buys the lion's share of their equipment thru RB auctions. They're one of the few other outfits at the RB auctions besides me that are bidding on the old trucks.
