    Looking at a 89 case 888 excavator

    Thanks Joe, The machine is real clean but it has 13000+ hrs on it. I haven't heard it run or tested. He is asking 10k for it and that is what has me worried. Thanks for your time. steve.

    Looking for demo work along the Jersey shore prefer the southern end.

    So what I am gathering is that the only people who benifit from FEMA is are the storm damaged homeowners, etc. As long as you are not the primary contractor you might as well not bother. Once again the small business operators gets the shaft!!! Thanks for everyones input.
