is this a decent TM to rebuild?
looking to either buy a small TM like an EZ or find a deal on craigslist and rebuild one.
There isnt much on CL in our area now but this turd is 3500
http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/bfs/4682889042.html
hours are kinda high but what I am looking to do is strip it down to complete simplicity, just keeping the essentials.
motor, blower, pump, engine, etc dont need heat exchanger just vac and pressure

Re: is this a decent TM to rebuild?
That would be a pain to rebuild and expensive . Be patient and wait for a nice condition hydra cat, they can be found in good shape for around $3000 , or a beat up one for $500,
I have owned 2 of them, great machines, basically hydra masters version of a Judson.
Even if you found a beat up one for 500 it could be worth it, strip and sand blast the frame, powder coat , slap on new components and there you got a brand new machine for a fraction of the cost.

Re: is this a decent TM to rebuild?
cool, thanks Andy. I dont know much about older TMs and see deals on CL from time to time.
Ill keep my eye out for a hydra cat. I was thinking even a little spitfire if it was real cheap wouldnt be bad either.

Re: is this a decent TM to rebuild?
What size TM are you looking for. I know were there is a bruin II at coolant Hx is missing but motor, blower, and cat pump are good as far as I know. If interested send a pm or call me.
