(NOTE: The owner stated that UP will accept this unit for interchange and delivery on the UP system This had been stored serviceable by the U.S. Army until it was sold to it's current owner several years ago. The unit only had 200 miles on it when sold. $95,000 NOTE: This unit is receiving roller bearings! Superheater@rrmail.com |
