Ok it`s story time.
So for years now I've driven by a local scrap yard and eyeballed with interest this beasty alligator shear threating to stop by and inquire about it.
Well the other week I did stop and look at it and was stunned at how big it was, then walked away seemingly content.
Well it festered that I didn`t talk to them so I popped back in and actually talked to them about it and they said they were gunna keep it so I walked away happy that I`d seen it through.
Ha! about 10 feet from my car the guy yells out " hang on a minute" I think crap... here we go.
He says there is another one down the road at an old saw mill that is getting cleared and tells me the bloke to see, so off I go
I get there and there`s this even bigger one sitting off to the side under a home made cover.
I have a quick look and hunt down the bloke in charge.
After talking to him about it he gives me a "well shit that`s very doable price" and I say I`ll think about it for a couple of days . I`m walking away and he yells out "it works"..... shit I`m doomed. So I go up to it grab the massive flywheel and give it a yank and sure enough it works so hell I tell him I`ll take it.
The following pix are of the first one.
