[emeraldcoupe]

picked this up off the original owner today for $75, date code of 9/72. he also threw in a free hf pressure washer with a bad pump but the engine runs great and has a good hose,gun, and tips. not a bad day

 

[FJ 432]

Yep.

You ****.

 

[twistedchief]

Nice score there.

oo yah you ****..

 

[zakmartin]

Dude, you got the S-Type. That's gonna seriously haul in the quarter-inch.

 

[jeffmoss26]

You ****!

I LOVE finding pressure washers with bad pumps. People just want to get rid of them. Picked up a few in the last couple of months. One was a high end commercial one and the pump would have been $600 to replace. Got it for free and sold then sold the 11hp Honda engine for $300. Paid $15 for another one with a 5hp Honda engine that I sold for $125. Guess people don't realize that engines have some value, especially Hondas.

Is there something special about an S type?

 

[emeraldcoupe]

Its not a craftsman badge , lol. I'm pretty sure it's off a Buick like the rest that are ( were) on it.

 

[69supercj]

Got it. Suckered me in on that one! lol.

 

[e30bradley]

nice deal. what are you going to do with the washer?

 

[emeraldcoupe]

nice deal. what are you going to do with the washer?

not sure. I'm going to take the pump apart and see if it's something simple that's wrong. otherwise I now have a spare engine and everything for my other washer.

 

[cburnscrx]

Yup, you ****!

 

[Steven67fr]

Looks like someone went through the junk yard stealing badges off cars. Great box for the price!

 

[taumac]

Good deal. I wish I could find one of those bottoms to match my other one.

 

[Lookin4'67Galaxieconv]

Ya done good. I just picked up a Craftsman roller similar to that, same year date range, a few months back. Very happy with it.

 

[bcradio]

Planning on doing any restoring to that box?

 

[Bill Ramsey]

Surely thou sucketh.

 

[JazRedGT]

You ****** **** bro!! Try harder! Matter a fact just send me that garbage you bought. LoL Nice finds bro!

 

[emeraldcoupe]

Planning on doing any restoring to that box?

no. i'll have to get a pic, the top box has vintage speed decals all over it...

 

[emeraldcoupe]

I forgot to update this.... the pressure washer works awesome. I hooked it up before I took it apart and sure enough it worked perfect. power washed part of my driveway to test it out. must have been user error on the guys part,lol.

 

[taumac]

I was cruising cl and saw that box and on second look I said DAMN IT.... That's the one you got LOL



Have a good one, Gerard
