BORE OR REPAIR YOUR OWN WELL WITH THIS 1958 STARDRILL CABLE TOOL DRILLING RIG MOUNTED ON A 1972 F-500 FORD PICKUP.
The truck is powered by the original industrial 223 CI straight 6 gas engine with an oil bath air cleaner. The total mileage is 9,879 although the title says 00000 miles (due to age and type of vehicle). The engine starts and runs well. The 7.50x20 tires all hold air, and would probably be OK for a hundred miles maybe, but are FAIR TO POOR due to age. Has tow bar provisions on the front bumper. The rig is 11 high when it transport position. So less than 14" overall height when on a lowboy trailer.
The 1958 Stardrill rig was built by the Keystone Company in Beaver Falls PA. This Stardrill model is similar to a Bucyrus Erie model 20W. Ready to drill. Includes everything needed and more to bore a six inch diameter well.
500 FEET 5/8 DRILL LINE. 500 FEET SAND LINE. 100 FOOT CASING LINE. TWO 16" BAILERS, 2 STEMS, SUBS, JARS, FOUR 6 CARBIDE BUTTON BITS, 4 GUY LINES, 4 GROUND STAKES, $700 CABLE CUTTER, AND MANY OTHER USEFUL TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES.
12,000 GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT.
THE DECK ENGINE IS A RECENTLY REBUILT 4 CYL INTERNATIONAL GAS ENGINE. STARTS AND RUNS GREAT. RUNS ALL DAY ON 5 GALLONS OF GAS. THE RIG GEARS, CLUTCHES AND BRAKES ARE ALL IN GOOD CONDITION.
RIG IS CURRENTLY SET UP ON RANCH NORTH OF FLORENCE ARIZONA, AND IS BEING SOLD BY THE CURRENT OWNER, WHO AT 62 YEARS OLD, FOUND WELL DRILLING TO BE VERY HARD WORK, MORE TIME CONSUMING, AND MORE DIFFICULT THAN HE HAD ANTICIPATED.
NOTE: The tools and accessories are very heavy and cannot be transported on the drill truck itself. A separate flatbed trailer is needed to transport for these items. One can be supplied by seller for an added charge, if needed.
If desired, the seller can provide a few hours of instruction regarding the details of set-up, take down, and basic operations of the rig.
