Looking for a bucket truck in or around NJ, would prefer 60ft working height but would consider others. Willing to drive for the right truck. Not looking for a fixer upper, truck needs to go to work right away.
Anybody have one for sale?
 
still looking....

I know you've requested around NJ, but would you consider coming to Florida to buy one?

Here are a few details:

2004 International 4300 with D.T. 466
Diesel engine with only 25,000 original miles
Allison automatic 5 speed
air brakes
under CDL 26000. G.V.W.
has older Hi-Ranger 60 ft W.H
body has electrical style toolboxes
four outriggers
cab protection ready to work.

Seller is asking $68K or BO.

Let me know.

68k or best offer?? .. nice try anyway! :laugh:

The concept of that truck is on target though. A flatbed and a newer 60' boom, professionally mounted and then you would have something.

South jerseys crack's list has a 60 altec on a 99 7500 needs a new engine 6500.00 , its missing the engine willl cost ya 2,300 with a core so you'll have a decent truck truck for under 10k that sounds worth it to me , the truck is in FOLSOM NJ .. No # just the pics and ad...

Lol. Nice cab and chassis. That boom is quite the turd though. I wouldn't pay more than 25K for that rig, but I AM a cheap bastard.
 
But that rear deck.. er.. thingy, looks soo comfy for sharpening saws on! lol. $$

I could see that getting smashed right through a garage door, the tree or a fence , better yet if I am driving it I am sure I will hit alot of parked cars for about a month ....I would have to put dumby markers on it so I know when I am close ...

Not to mention backing up steep driveways.

That truck looks like it was thought up halfway intelligently anyway. The other half must've been smoking some serious rock though.. lol. Too bad for a nice cab and chassis.

Oh I didn't even think of that I am sure that would put a nice gouge in the concrete when you run aground and are spinning your wheels while the hitch holds you in the air lol .. That would be priceless , I saw a Raymore and Flannigan truck stuck like that once blocking the whole street with a cop chewing a new ###hole into the driver and he just stood there looking like a beaten man....

Now that I am really looking 68 k with a folded bumper ... You should at least repair that ....And if I am gonna take a guess its a remount , Hi ranger doesn't even make that boom anymore I am guessing that boom is from the mid 90's maybe ...

Seller contacted me earlier today to say he had sold the truck, so it is no longer available. I forgot to get back here to update my post.

As for the comment about a folded bumper. The bumper has no damage, what you see in the pix makes it look like it is but it's the way the black frame is attached. Kind of like an optical illusion.

Peace and Success to you.
 
I just bought a bunch iof saws from a guy down sizing his business. I don't know the asking price but he has a 2001 International DT466 chip dump with a 60ft working height high ranger. The truck has 32k miles. It is mint He really takes care of his stuff. Inside storage also. Very nice truck. I can give you his number if you would like. If the price is right the truck is worth traveling for.
