I received my MK17 and MK18 rear body units yesterday... Thought I would share a few pics.
The rolloff unit has seen better days and will need some serious TLC. I think the loader went crazy with a fork truck and snapped off most of the fittings connecting the truck to trailer. Darn thing is going to be a nightmare to rework, and might wind up as spare parts.
The unit with the crane is sure good looking! Looks to be all there and recently cleaned up and painted. My inspection shows that the crane is marked "DO NOT USE" and it seems to be missing the winch rope. I will need to test the unit to see what all is missing.... and needs love.
The FPU should be here next week! Hopefully it just needs the batteries to be replaced and will be in modest running condition. It would be great to have this bad boy functional.
A guy in Georgia has a few spare parts for these things, but it is limited mostly to the RBUs. I had to order up driveshafts and the remote control units. Anyone know of a good source for parts for the tractor heads???
