mowerman Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing unless he’s probably thinking he could get more for everything separate, which is usually the case ….. most times , just the engine alone is worth more than the whole truck….

mechohaulic Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 seems rarely do you find someone saying " it's been sitting here tooo long, get it out of here for $?????. ". as you say parts individual sold bring in more $$$ all the history/ unavailable else where parts gone to scrap yard for couple bucks. looook at the topic biggest Mack ever built. had not been for individual concerned for history; the 100 tonner would torched by now.
