Popular Post other dog Posted January 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2017 Yes, I've decided that I should sell the mixer truck. I'm putting it here first, i'll take $5,000 - and that's not etched in stone- from any BMT member. I'd really like to see it in the Keystone Tractor Museum, but they've shown no interest in it. I'll probably ask $6500 for it, the price when I bought it, but i'll let it go for 5 to BMT members that have been here a year or more- just so nobody joins tomorrow to get a good deal. I have nowhere to store it inside, and that's where it needs to be. It needs some TLC, and I don't have the time, and no where to even park it at home. The clear coat is peeling in spots, and I just hate to see it sitting there, when I know it wants to be ran. It's in great shape mechanically as far as I know, always ran great, transmission- 18 speed quadruplex- works great, it stops great too. I hate to do it, I love this truck, but somebody else can take better care of it than I can. I took this picture of it yesterday- 7 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Vladislav Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Sorry to hear. But sometimes we better should be clever than end up with something stupid. BTW I have never seen the mixer detailedly and more pics might help in finding a good home too.
