Street sweeper
Hey guys i need help with BIG things.
I would like to find someone who has the ability to move large items.
The first one would be a 1963 elgin street sweeper, I would like to reach a deal with someone who can move it,
This will lead to another job if it goes sucessfully. I have a 60's bus. It is complete with the engine and trans. Due to the size i would guess it would take a lowboy to move it.
If i cannot move them whole, i think i will buy torches and start cutting. Or i could get a pipe saw.
I appreciate any help and insight i could get here. Local yard are not interested/ equipped.
Here is a cl posting of it, but i would rather start working with a forum member.

ETA: These things are mine already, i have "ownership" of them and need to move them.

Are you considering paying this guy that much? Seems to me 8000lbs X $0.12 = $960 - $700 = $260 not counting expenses is far too much to the owner of this thing. If I had the eqipement I would offer $200 and demand a bill of sale so he could not back out. Mike.

You want put me up in a room fpr a night and cut me a %, I will come and help torch it up on the weekend. Your only a few hours from me. WHat part you in? I can either bring the plasma or torches...just need to get my o2 filled is all. Torch probaly quicker. Yes Im dead serious. Need a break from life lol.

Woah that sounds sweet, This weekend i will be repairing my truck so that is priority, maybe next weekend 5/26
I am in Bedford MA and I have torches and acetylene/oxygen, no air compressor though for a plasma
Also i might bring a generator with me instead of running 100+ feet of extension cord.
Sounds like it might work, as long as i dont do it all by then. Will see how this week goes.

Well if you need me holler. Will be around. Just busy all this week or I would come now. Your only 5 hours away and honestly, used to make that run daily when driving truck. So no big deal. I dont have the greatest torch set in the world, harbor freight, but it has a #3 tip and I been burning since I was 18...almost 15 years. So can do it quick. Let me know. Plus while Im up there, maybe I will run up to NH to the beach...make it a vacation..lol.

Waiting to get a concrete cutter to do the bulk of the body cutting,
Wont have it till next week
Dont think torching through the roof and sides will be cost effective?

Yes it is. I have cut up whole dump trucks including cabs with one o2 tank.
