    The ground in our area is more sandy loan, once you get passed the duff (veg level) which can be a couple a feer deep. Spring breakup is a short period of mud, followed by a quick dry out. So don't believe moving from the place to be much of an issue. Most work will include: * Digging up and...

    I was thinking along the same lines, When I go back I'm going to pull the hood and check the hour meter. I was thinking hours and lining up would be pretty unusual. As far as price, negotiations is always part of the purchase, lol

    I have the opportunity to purchase a 89 Flu419 with 3032 miles and a little over 3000 hrs on it. Paint, body and machanics look good on first inspection. Operated the hydrolics (no digging, just moving stuff around). Everything seemed to work as intended. I was a Seabee for many yrs as an...
