This truck is for sale as is, where is. The truck runs and operates, but also has some the aches and pains of a truck of its age(minor repairs / spots of rust and such). I have owned this truck for 1 year and I believe it to be sound mechanically. The truck is easy to drive and operate. This is an impressive Heavy duty piece of machinery.
Seagrave rebuilds these scopes for fire departments to put into service again.
Please see video below to see the operation, I show the truck driving to hear the engine and trans performance as well as the outrigger and tower operation.
I noticed the last 2 times I operated the truck there was a spot of transmission fluid under the truck, I located the drip to the external transmission filter mounted on the frame. It is the type that steel outside and has an element with gasket. I will try to fix it, but dont know how fast I can get the filter. The transmission itself looks dry.
In August I had new wheel bearings and seals put on the front wheels. Also had the main hydraulic cylinder rebuilt.
*** Important ***
I bought this truck with the intention of restoring it, however I lost my storage facility and am forced to keep this at my house. I have been looking for a new storage spot and can"t find one near enough.
This truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel this auction if the truck sells locally or if I locate storage for it.
Shipping: I will not ship, I will work with your shipping company (I will not try to drive this truck onto a trailer).
I suggest you come and see truck. Feel free to ask questions
Thanks for looking :)
