We are selling our 1984 Volvo 25 Challenger ton tow truck. This was our first heavy and we have owned it since about 2003. It has a 350 cummins and 18 spd trans. We redid the body and paint about 18 months ago. It has an integrated underreach which uses Zachlift parts. It comes with the forks and attachments but no recovery equipment. Has 2 25k winches, hydraulic stiff legs and all cylinders where rebuilt when we redid body but one stiff leg is leaking some when it is operated. Truck currently runs, drives and operates correctly. Ok so that is the good news, here is the bad. THIS TRUCK WILL NEED THE FRAME RAIL REPLACED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OR PUT ON DIFFERENT CHASSIS! We are selling this truck and making sure we are telling you anything wrong with it before you bid! It still runs and drives and tows but it will need the double frame replaced or put on a different chassis to make it a safe dependable truck. We are selling this for the value of the bed. So you have your choice we will send you with the entire truck or pull the bed off for you if you wish and set it on your trailer to take home. Truck runs and drives fine but the frame is pushing out on the spring hanger and when you turn it will rub a little on the inside of the passenger front tandem tire. This truck has been a Midwest truck and although the body has been cared for and has minimal rust and no rust on the outside, the chassis has built up rust between the inner and outer frame rails and it needs replaced or put on another chassis. The hydraulic tank and all controls are mounted in the body so you could easily disconnect the PTO pump supply and pressure lines and pull this body off and remount on your chassis. This truck currently has a 284 wb but if you want you can put it on a day cab or put it back on a sleeper chassis. Your call. We thought about putting in a new rail or putting on a different chassis but we have newer trucks and don"t want to waste this one sitting here just getting worse so we are selling. Look, I"m not desperate to sell, I know that we used this truck a lot and made our business grow by starting with this truck so if you want to do the same I am pricing this truck as if we were selling the body and with a little work you can do the same but don"t call me and make a ridiculous offer cause again, I"m NOT desperate. Call Midwest Towing and Recovery 402-489-7979 and ask for Jeff or Andy with any questions. If you want more pics or some specific pics let us know. This auction is subject to end early as truck is for sale locally. NO RESERVE. Thanks for looking and Good Luck!
