There's a local guy not far from me that has a Cat 623 for sale. Overall the machine is decent, early 80's model and tires in good shape. Bowl and flight bars in fair shape. Only problem is the engine has a knock. Apparently it started knocking one morning and so they took to their shop and has set for nearly a year. The knock sounds like it might be the bottom end. Asking price is $12,000. I dont mind having to do repairs and of course stuff like this is a gamble.
Wondering what others think about the price. These scrapers don't really bring much around here, not many 623's in my area. Of course, without knowing exactly what the engine issue is, I'm thinking new engine for worst case situation.
