    I agree with george, all depends on how much rotted way. If its still pretty solid, i would guess about 1800 min. Nice find, dont let it get away.

    I've gotta agree with the 2-2500k. So i,ll go middle of the road and say 2250. I'd be shocked if that sucker was less than a ton.

    Good deal Jack.

    How did you end up getting it on the trailer?

    Just me and Jr. ended up going to get. We had to jack up the front just high enough to get get the trailer under it. Then we just come-a-longed it right on up. No muss, no fuss. As for pic #4 he caught me looking off at the "skyline". Kinda daydreaming I guess. lol. But i sure was thankful everything went as smooth as did finally.

    Yeah, I was wondering about your guess. lol The yard took it as Misc. Sheet Metal cause I didn't cut it up. Just took it in as is. They paying $230 per gross ton. I kept 240lbs. of it though (huge tailgate, couple rails) to make me a work table out of. Total pay for 1300 lbs = $133.48 for 2 hrs work. I was happy enough with that.
