Do they still have parts for these old guys. Can you trust the odometers?00303_9QcvxpEGLB_0CI0t2_600x450.jpg

I think the seller posted a fake ad with a similar excavator to see if painting got more interest. It's 2200 hrs and 7000 lbs too and 7000 lbs is wrong in both cases.
Shows u how crazy craigslist is.

They are both worth a 1/3 of the asking price for starters and that's before looking at them in person.

I doubt they have odometers but hour meters are the last thing to trust. I'd run away from those machines. Have read of problems with those style offset booms if you look at other machines.

I'm far from Vancouver so take it with a grain of salt. If it runs and operates normally, not completely worn out in the tracks or the pins in the boom, then I'd guess he'd get close to those prices here. Maybe not even ten, but they'd sure sell in a hurry at five.
