I think I'm amassing a pretty solid resume to be second in command of the Deal King Empire.

First there was this...

http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=64664.0





And now there's this...






1979 Ford F-700 with a Ford Motorsports crate 460 under the hood with 8,000 miles on it and a Holley fuel injection kit and MSD ignition.  Pulls like a freight train.

Only things I can tell that it needs are a new hose for the wheel lift and new kingpins.

Paid $3,000 for it.   8)

Looks like a useful truck. How many miles on the chassis?
It's a buyers market around here so while that seems like a good price it doesn't seem that far under priced to me.
Congrats.

If the digger came with it you'd be a shoe in.

Otherwise you're off to an impressive start :)

Good score!

Chassis has 86,000 on it.  It originally had a crane mounted on it.

Hence, high hours on the engine, which was replaced with the crate engine not too long ago, but very little wear and tear on the rest of the truck.



Ducatamount, where are you that's a buyer's market?  Have you priced rollbacks with a 6.5 ton body?  I haven't been able to find a used body for under $5,000.  Let alone one with a truck attached to it.

No, the mini-excavator wasn't part of the deal.

However, I did get a free pair of vise-grips which function as the driver's door window crank.   :P

Look at it however you'd like, but as part of a demolition job I'm doing, they asked me to get rid of a tank.

Turns out the tank wasn't empty.   [thumbsup]
