Came across this unit. Purkins 4.2L. Money is right. Low hours. Lookin for info as to durabilty and how big of stuff can it handle. I haven't been around one, so I have no clue. Seems to be simular to what I have. But, I'm just lookin at a picture.

My 20yr. ol' 290 Beaver w/a 4cyl. Hurcule's, bought new, just took a major dump, not rebuildable. He!! they quit makin that engine yrs. ago. but it certainly doesn't owe me anything. Been a good unit for my undertakings. It will still warrant another engine. Came across the 17 while motor huntin and just wonderin.......thanks
 
the wc17 is a low dollar machine . not built to well. lots of problems and hard to get parts for since the manufacturer has changed names 15 times over the past 15 years.

look into companies that been around a while. bandit, morbark, vermeer

i have a 12" vermeer for 7500
3 bandit 200xp's 8500 each
