CSX4158 For Sale, but Salvage due to Flood

[snakehunter]

I'm surprised by the initial lack of damage. Mud is everywhere, but when I removed the air cleaner, the carb was clean and there were no signs of mud/water under the butterflies or under the valve cover breathers.

Gauges look dry, and the seats even appear to have survived. Carpet was torn out and fluids were partially drained by the auction company, but there was no water in the trans or diff and from what I can see looking through the drain holes with a light, there's still plenty of grease on the gears.

Oil was a little cloudy and had just a few drops of moisture in it.

I drilled the main rails with an 1/8" bit and got several cupfuls of clear/orangish water but no crud.

Paint is hazy and chipped in a couple spots down low, but I can save that.

Later this month we'll pull the motor, trans and tear down the diff to see what else is there. I'm excited and am clearing the schedule so we can get 'deep' into it...
