New toy what's it worth

[STLfirewood]

Here is a new toy I just picked up. I was at an auction and it was there. It was the guys friends auction and he told him to bring it down. It wasn't on the sale bill so there was no one else that would have wanted it there. It didn't sell for what the guy wanted. I worked out a deal with him after the auction and brought it home. It runs good and everything works. It has a leak in one of the hydraulic lines that I need to fix. I have to go to his place now and pick up the elevator for the back of it and the table to set logs on to feed the conveyor. It has been upgraded to push buttons for the controls. It seems to be a decent machine. So let me know what you think. Also what do you think a machine like this in good working condition could fetch on e-bay with the elevator and the table. The guy said the table will hold about 10 5-gallon bucket size logs.

Dang

Thats cool! I would bet it is way more money than I would want to spend.

They go for around $40k new. I worked out a deal on this one for $4k. It runs very well I just need to do a couple things to it. I bought all new filter for it tonight so I can change everything and get it going. Hopefully it works really good for me. I was told that it will do around 2 cords an hour. I will be happy with 1 cord an hour. we'll see worse case I sell it. I don't think I would have any trouble getting my money back out of it.

Awesome Deal

There was one here that went for 12K that looked nothing like that. Then they auctioned off the conveyor for another 2K.
The one I'm building is going to be very basic. I'll send pictures as I progress.

What is the make and model, I assume the Kuboda is just the engine...

I'm not sure of the make an model. It has been repainted. Yes that is just the engine.
