PWL216 889 #1 Posted July 11 Saw this posted on CL yesterday. I called an hour after it was posted and was the 3rd caller. Just as well as I have too many projects. Any idea what year it is? Does it appear to be original, other than color and tire rims? 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ri702bill 8,313 #3 Posted July 11 Not me - this time. I did buy a rather decent C81 roller from them. Dropped off a load of scrap, worked that into the deal.. The C81 cost me less than $40 ! 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ri702bill 8,313 #7 Posted July 11 That yard does NOT part the tractors out - you buy it as-is. They are my #2 choice to bring scrap aluminum cans to (RI does not have a bottle bill). Last check, she was paying 8 CENTS a pound for cans - my 1ST choice pays 25 cents.... Aluminum is a commodity, prices fluctuate seasonaly and due to supply / demand... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't you remember that lawn cart Brian pulled out of the scrap heap a few years back? People are stupid. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
