I know of two Hustlers that a guy has and wants to sell them. Year unknown. One would be for parts and other would be to restore. Has 2 stroke Kohler apart in box.
Running gear needs chains, bearings, seals and may need shafts. Rims are good but needs tires.
He also has an Argo 8x8 Year unknown Needs body work. Has good tires could use new rims and shafts, bearings and seals. It also has tracks but they need work. The power plant is out of the unit and together. The transmission has been rebuilt.
I have some Ideas about making a very good unit but I do not know what I should pay a basket cases. Can any one tell me how much they would pay for what some may call junk.
Thank you Ted

Yea if the parts are good parts but you dont want to put them together go for it still. Get an Ebay acount and sell them and you may end up with a BIG profit. I got a Harley once in a box, the motor itself was worth a good 2 grand not to mention everything I got with it. And do you know how much I paid? Only 1 grand!!!!!
