At least it not smashed upNow that's what I'm talkin about... I feel better every time one of you guys tells me it's not as bad as I think it is.
Uh oh... just when I was feeling better; I found the trailer. It was completely buried by thick brush way in the back of the yard. I even forgot that I had a trailer for the loader. The plate says 1990 so it's been sitting back there for 21 years.
I cut the brush away... some of it with trunks 2" thick... and slapped a chain on the old hulk. Needed to use the 4WD on my truck just to break the trailer loose from it's 21 year mooring but it came out in one piece. The wheels even turned... amazing... and only one of the 4 tires was flat.
Here it is after I cleaned it up a bit. If it checks out mechanically and structurally (roadworthy), I'll paint it to match the loader.
Cab smashed down
So bad the guages are hanging one the wires
Exhaust busted, soot everywhere and so full of sawdust I have no idea why it never burned
sad part only 1400 hours
