Popular Post Superdog Posted September 23, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2014 Just had a deal about like Paul's. Called on a truck last night,owner and I made a deal,told him I'd send a down payment and have it pick up within 2 weeks,agreed on everything,then get a text 5 min. ago,he sold the truck to someone else for $500 more. Texted and called back and he won't answer back. About ready to drive to MN with my baseball bat. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 That doesn't sound good although the best thing we can do is to not do such things ourself and try our best.Sometimes I think though it's the worst to deal with idiots. 2 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Superdog Posted October 16, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2014 Update,just got off the phone with my buddy Larry,the MN truck is loaded and on its way to IA. So here is a sneak peek.1971 R795ST,ENDT865 V8, 2 stick 6 speed,air lift 3rd axle,121k actual miles.Been a lowboy tractor all it's life. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Looks like a fine beginning for the Harbison Heavy Haul division. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 yeah,now I need to find an old tri axle lowboy. Also been kicking around the idea of taking off the 3rd axle and putting one of my Mercury bunks on it. Should be just long enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brocky Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 MikeI guess I am "Old School" enough that with only 120k miles I would leave it just as is, with a good cleaning, as this tractor looks like a prime example of how Mack and Heavy Haulers set up a tractor during that era.. Just my 2 cents worth..Brocky 2 Quote Brocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2 cents worth..BrockyChances are good it will stay like it is.I'll find an old obsolete lowboy for it to pull somewhere. The winch that was on it was removed,so I'll have to come up with one to replace it.Sometime in it's life someone put a Western grille on it. That will probably go. From what I can gather,I'm the 4th owner,bought new as a lowboy tractor,owner retired and sold out continued under new owner,then traded to the guy I bought it from,for painting a dump truck. He had no use for it other than recouping for his work,so he put it for sale right away. I'm just glad he had 2nd thoughts about selling it to the exporter,that,offered him more money. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
