What i am putting up for auction is an old school rig. The short wheel base allows you to maneuver this rig anywhere. The two 20 K booms have about 150ft of cable, one is new on the spool , and I have another new cable inside the box, if you need to reach out farther then 150 ft.

One of the door's hinges ( on the box ) needs to be welded. Door still works . minor fix. I might get to it. I ave concentrated mainly on sanding/grinding any rust ( mostly surface ) and have applied 5 coats of Direct to metal primer/ and finish paint. I also plan on painting an Eagle on the hood. ....Of course.

I was told the 7.3 has only 140, XXX but cannot verify. Motor is very tight, and other mechanic's that have looked at it believe it to be true. Has one new battery, the other is about 2 yrs old. Fire's right up. Oil pressure is around 50 psi. There is a block heater for the cold days, i have never used it.

New radiator, probably from when the previous owner had been shot at after repo a vehicle.......I left the hole.

. He had also replaced the clutch, so it has app. 1000 miles on the 5 speed. Micro lock braking system. 4 wheel disc brakes.Tire and brake's are in very good shape

I had purchased Boomer ( she named it ) to use the cranes . There is a heavy duty hitch that can be attached to the wheel lift , so you could easily pull a trailer carrying heavy equipment. . This is gear low , (you don't want to take this over 55 ) but still doesn't get terrible mileage. I am figuring 14 mpg...

Dual tanks, i have driven 300 miles , and still have fuel in both tanks. . As of right now, its about $100.00 ( 4.00 a gallon for diesel here ) to fill it up.

Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Bloomberg TV reporter Matt Miller is the proud new owner of a pretty killer truck. How do we know? The reporter headed to Dearborn, MI to Ford's assembly plant, with a film crew in tow, to see exactly how his new F-150 SVT Raptor and its mother-loving 6.2-liter V8 engine, was screwed together.
The resulting video does an excellent job of summing up how an assemblage of parts and pieces is turned into a triple-black Raptor, thanks to the work of some 1,000 employees and about 20 hours of real time. Click through below to see how the truck is born, with a surprise cameo playing the part of delivery driver at the end.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.

Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.
