While on patrol yesterday driving past an old "junk" yard I see this scrapper using a Weaver Baloon Tire Spreader. I had to stop. He uses this daily for fixing tires.
This is T era?
He also has a Weaver wrecker boom, frame and gears look good except one boom arm welded. Gears good n turns fine.
He's willing to sell!
Any info on the value of these?

I sold a restored 3 Ton Weaver wrecker boom for $1800. They originally had 30’ of chain. Most I’ve seen lately used incorrect cable.

Seems one is for sale on this site for $100.
Might look good in your T barn
