Shynon 7,482 #1 Posted June 9, 2013 Went to pick this up tonight on a tip from a fellow Redsquare member Thanks Rydogg. Called my son (Prondzy) had to go soon, hooked up trailer and we are off . I was thinking all the way we would be late and miss the scrap . As we got closer the GPS had more turns than I can remember then around the last long sweeping turn we saw it. Someone else had beat us to it . I pulled up and asked if he was taking it all and he asked what I was looking for. I said the push blade and snow blower. He already had the push blade in his truck, he said you can have the blade and the blower . We kindly helped him load everything that was left. Tom 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rydogg 186 #8 Posted June 9, 2013 I was cruising through craigslist for Toro parts when I came across that free stuff I knew I was too far away and would never make it knowing how fast free scrap goes around here so I tried to think of the member that was closest....I sure am glad you made it before it all went to the scrap yard. Here is the picture from the ad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prondzy 3,889 #11 Posted June 9, 2013 It was hard to believe that even a Scrapper had enough kindness to let us take the wheel horse parts (might have helped that he knew there was no way he was going to lift the 2 stage blower into his truck by himself --way too heavy :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
