in a few weeks, bosshogs carcass will be ready to go bye bye. if you don't know what i'm talking about see this thread. https://forum.ih8mud.com/fj55-iron-pig-preservation-society/750826-boss-hogs-pig.html

there most likely will not be much more than the body carcass, but i feel this is totally salvageable and would be great for someone who wants to learn to weld body panels in without downing their own rig.

located in the denver metro area, trailer will be required. scrap on this won't be much, so make bosshog ANY offer, he'd rather see it go to good than scrap.
 
The cargo floor is good. The shoulder straps will be coming over. I'd love to send the whole carcass as I'll have to get the pig out of the sty ASAP TO make room for YOUR pig!
 
The cargo floor query is an effort to speed along the sheet metal repair, to get it there in good time.

If/when at all possible, pics of floor would help, so I could discuss with body guy to see if it'd be easier, faster, better than fabbing the currently planned 12" wide patch panels.

Thanks!!
 
I'll get you some pics tonite.

Ige & Pighead-
How are y'all doin on beer?

Those rear corners have the worst, and it appears to be surface rust...

What's the possibility of removing in one piece and shipping, IF this Pig's gonna carve....

We need to wait for plasma cutter parts to arrive...and take it from there.
 
Who wants the carcass/shell including doirs but minus interior bits for $200 & u haul? And Ige has already claimed the hood...
 
So it's at $200 and hauling huh?

Will throw this out there, then.

If anyone can haul it, send me the rear cargo panels (they'd have to surgically remove, package, and get to Fedex Ground location) I could probably swayed to it being dang near free on that persons end.

Edited:

I'll translate.

Cut out cargo floor pans.

Package it.

Get it to FedEx Ground location.

Keep the rest for your project.....removed from current driveway, for free.

$200 is a bargain for what I need out of that Pig, compared to what I'm looking at cost of fabbing even patch panels for.
