Oshkosh MB-2 Aircraft Tugs - Snow Plow - Monster Truck
4-foot drifts are nothing to these rigs!! Twin 1968 Oshkosh MB-2 Aircraft tugs outfitted for snow removal. Selling business due to increased time commitments at full time job. Truck with toolboxes needs bearings rolled in, still running with good oil pressure but slight knock. Sale includes both trucks, spare parts, full military manuals. Trucks rated for puling aircraft up to 500,000 lbs, so a little snow is no problem. 4-wheel drive AND steering, 1673-B Caterpillar engine, Twin-Disk transmissions. Turbos replaced on both trucks, one in 1998 and the other in 2003. Michelin radials on both have under 5,000 miles. Parts include one fresh injection pump, one core, spare fresh 165amp alternator, other misc. stuff. Blades shown in photos not included. I have been under state contract in Virginia for thirteen years, and they provide the blades. Last contract rate was $145/hr each truck. 2008-09 rates are near $200/hr! Contract can't be conveyed, but I will assist interested Virginia buyer in getting signed on. These are considered heavy equipment and can use off-road fuel. Transport over more than 20 miles will require lowboy. They are geared for power and top out at 30 MPH. 38,000 lbs each. I reserve the right to close the auction as the equipment is for sale locally.
