Might not make the worst parts machine though. No major tin damage, pins all look tight, rads good, pump is probably OK too.

Chris, to be honest I think free might be even too expensive for this thing. Good for parts, but I don’t think it could be saved from being scrapped. By the time you price out rear rims, possibly tires, hoses that need replaced, plus the time to winch it on a trailer, motor condition, transmission, etc.

They can't all be runners - could tell from the length of the video that it was probably going to be a pass. I don't blame the owner for wanting to get all he can, but that machine looks a bit too long in the tooth - probably needs an engine rebuild. Really appreciate your enthusiasm for the location and the drone shots - another reason I love your channel. They are rich with varied content and some context that brings us along and enriches our minds. Thank you, Chris!

You could do at least $1000 just on hydraulic pipes, let alone the engine work and a possible a cylinder reburb. Chris, so right to walk (run) away 😊

Cris made it up to my neck of the woods! Hi neighbor!

Love both your channels man, great work. The diversity and sometimes just beautiful scenery makes what you do different from the rest and unique, but sure do enjoy the road trips. Happy holidays, have a good one.

Yep; probably wise to pass on that one...The boat, however, could be fun, esp. if you could find an old "Ted Williams" (Sears-branded West Bend, IIRC) outboard! Nice drone shots of the town all lit up w/ holiday lights...Good also to see Mr. Turbo and the Gus-Man out and about!

model 32 is the loader/hoe I believe. The tractor would be a 430, 530, etc. I had an early 60's 530 which was a bit bigger than that. Looks like the same 2.6 4 cylinder gas engine. My loader had a separate tag with a different model as well. Those case tractors that came with the hoe/loader all in one setup typically did not have a pto. They basically built a backhoe off of a farm tractor and did away with the 3 point and pto. Removing the hoe/loader attachment is no small feat. Pretty sure it's a sleeved engine, but realistically that machine is worth scrap value minus transport cost.

Chris The model 32 was made from 1960-67 FYI Cheers!😊

Case 530 TC. The tractor is actually a david brown fork lift base. First rubber tired backhoe loader made by case.

Chris....please turn that FL60 into your field mechanic rig, it would be perfect for what you're doing in this video and a lot easier to manage organization.

Just bought my first backhoe. 1963 John Deere 500 Industrial. It had a few issues that were revealed but if I had more time to go over it I would have offered less. But I have it now & looking forward to putting it to work. This one you are looking at is too far gone. If you had the time to put into it maybe but it being in the flood, just too many unseen issues. Even though you had to walk away time well spent. Great footage with the drone. Adding another 👍 Stay well, Joe Z

What was that Dionne Warwick song called....oh yeah......Walk on by.....😂😂😂😂😂

Easton has their peace candle up every year at Christmas time, it's beautiful to see my home town

Every time we get a big hurricane down here somebody revives one of these old backhoes to clean up downed trees and ends up getting themselves crushed when a tree trunk rolls down the loader arms or backhoe boom into the operator's seat. You have to really know what you're doing and not get complacent to work one of those things.

I have the same little boat, mine hadn’t been ran since like 2000. All I needed was a trolling motor to go around on a small reservoir. It’s a very nice boat and I doubt there will be any holes in it. Everything will be pretty easy to pressure wash other than the seats if it’s the same ones as mine. The stuff is stuck on there

I like these vids where you go and check out old gear. Whether you buy it or not, still very interesting to see. Reminds me of the super old machinery pops had (Massey Harris/FarmAll/Case). I always enjoy the vids.

Chris you should have checked out the fish ladder! It is on the opposite side of the lehigh from where you were standing

I just paid 1k for a early 80s Ford 755. She big girl but didn't run, one flat, 3 leaky cylinders and sloppy pins and bushings. Put a new battery, starter, and a lift pump on it and got her going. Had to bleed the steering pump and add a bunch of hydraulic oil but after a $400 lowboy ride, its back at my property running and digging for under 2k. Gonna fill it and run it before I fix it when it warms up. Just gonna change the oil and some filters and send it.

That's a good one to walk away from.

Dear NNKH guy. 👍👌👏 This is the kind of property that I wish to you and Jen (without the flooding of course). And yes, of course I totally agree: Leave the backhoe for a scrap metal dealer and come back for the boat in spring/summer. 2) I didn't know that cute little Gus man 💚 can stretch even more! 😱 Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.

That model number plate is just for the front loader. I noticed you have another ID tag on the backhoe frame, behind the seat. You should have one on the tractor, also.

That's definitely a cool property I use to leave on the water I wish I was still there I miss that place

I think he would be better off selling the backhoe, stabilizer stands, forks and bucket as separate units. Then scrap the rest. 😊

Would be a cool place to visit.

If you get it running You can drive it to the bottom of the river

Your videos are excellent. Your garage is totally organized. Your Tundra, not so much.

It is a 530 CK gas Backhoe . I am restoring one right now . The starter cost to rebuild was about 150 if you can find somebody still does it or the parts for it. Luckily mine runs and works . My father and I rebuild it 30 years ago . And now we’re repainting it the second time to sale. They are a very good machine to use once they are fixed up

Cool property - but that loader would take weeks and $$$ to rehab. I'd pass to.

They got those bicycle wheels on that boat so's you can just wheel it down to the waters edge.

@@gheice_modelism I'd call the local scrap buyer and see how much they pay for scrap iron and then offer the guy selling the tractor $50 above the scrap price assuming it's $600 or less. It should weigh around 5000 pounds. My guess is the scrap value for the entire tractor is $400 If the scrap yard tows it off the property as is. Then sell the front-end loader and backhoe for $1K each. That motor still might resell for a core charge price. The radiator is most likely copper/brass which has a good scrap value. The starter has copper windings good scrap price. Rough estimate I'd say there's $2500 in profit from reselling parts and scrap value. I'd strip it down and call the scrap yard to come pick up whatever's left.

Was thinking they sit Alot so probably runs fine but at 1550 you said seized? Could offer to deliver to scrap for 1/2 the money. Locate some used tires just in case it becomes yours it'd be fun to get it working..and after paint what would it sell for..$2-3k?

You should give him $300 and tell him to throw the boat in for free, just think of the money's you could make with that sweet backhoe & front bucket work. Little R&R Pull the head sand the cylinders out good to go 👍
