Could probably pick these up for a song. They were being shipped in a container onboard a ship. The ship was in a collision in the Houston Ship Channel on Halloween of this year.

I,m sure they,ll be going strait from the container to the crusher, to be recyled. They might even end up have different stickers and paint color when it is all said and done. LOL

A hammer, pry bar and a can of paint should fix that:laughing::laughing:

And a little bit of duct tape. :thumbsup::D I do see some salvage-able parts in photo 2. Look at the pretty green lower arms for the 3 point hitch. ;)

You forgot the duct tape. It's not officially repaired until the duct tape is applied:laughing:

I'd figure that for a cheap enough price, theres a whole lot of salvageable/re-sellable parts there. And we all know how costly green stuff can be! I try to avoid even buying lawnmower tractor parts from JD if I can help it. Just too dang costly.

After reviewing the pictures, it seems that the tires and rims probably absorbed much of the impact when the container was dropped. The frame also shows damage, but there should be a variety of other parts that are still salvageable and functional. As previously suggested, the insurance company will probably take bids. Hopefully no one was injured. :tractor:
