  5. Its not moved in quite a while, will ahve to have a word with the chap and get it started etc, like i say, 2wd, cab quite shoddy! 8000k hours, 103 hp, its dual power, flat deck cab, twin spools, pickup hitch, 3pl and pto etc.... rear tyres ok, fronts may be a bit perished. Would deffinetly need servicing, oils etc and a fresh battery. What sort of money would it be worth? hard to say i know
