Licensed to kill Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Could be a bargain for someone that lives close if there are few or no other bids. Probably worth $300-$400 in scrap these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 That’s the problem with that thing. It’s too far from everybody. It’s a gold mine if I was a little closer as long as it’s not frozen I don’t think it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Licensed to kill Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Are those parts for a 673 or E-6 or does it matter. I have a near complete scrap 673 sitting in the yard. If the parts you need will fit from that, you can have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
