Nice. I'll never understand why people scrap perfectly good machines like that. I've run into that too but it was at the scrap yard and I was too late to save them. At least you saved them. Good deal

I started a thread on another site a while back about the things people scrap. You would not believe the treasures that get sent to china & melted down & then sold back to us at twice the cost

Nice save! What's your plan for them?

I'm curious about your trailer -- is that a Black Rock?

Do you know why he was going to scrap them? They look decent. It just seems odd. But I'm a hoarder so I have a hard time scrapping anything.

Do you know what if anything is majorly wrong with them?

A great save! Look new enough to me!

I've purchased much "junque" in the past. Would have leaped on that scrap pile!

Welcome and good luck with the Horses.

Well the story is I hunt down old Wheel horses for awhile now then I soft restore some and use them around my yard. I also sell some of the ones I barn pick or field pick for other people to restore them. These two have compression in them just have to go through them to get them running. Amcrules I'm from Orchard Park,ny
