Skeered

On a closer examination, TC is getting leery of the Allis. The boy what owns it now... well, lets just say that I don't think his bread is done...He brought it out to a job site (still with that crossmember broken mind you) and managed to immediately tear the hydraulic pump out of it.

Here's a side view. It looks like it's missing an idler from underneath the top of the track. The pads are good, the pins aren't worn too terribly bad, but the drive sprockets seem to have a lot of wear on 'em.

If he knew it would hold together for about three months, I think he'd buy it, but after seeing it in it's current sad state, I think he's lost interest in it.
