Hey guys,
I went last night to look at a large engine driven air compressor that I planned on using to run a sandblaster. It's a Iingersoll-Rand (Which I always believed to be a better brand) and overall looked to be in good repair. Radiator full, so on.. Has a 4 cylinder engine (unsure of the make)
It belonged to a mechanic who used to use it alot, but bought a diesel and set this unit aside for back-up. It appears that it never had the exhaust covered and now it's stuck. (it's been outdoors for a while now, as I drive by the place on a very regular basis)
The gentleman is in the process of moving, and don't plan to move it (at least that's how I understood it) and says it can be mine cheap (but he don't know it is stuck yet, as I haven't talked to him since I looked at it)
I understand the risks in buying this as it sits, as it could be a simple unstick and use, or it could be totally ruined, worn out, and junk.. I'd just like to know what you folks think would be a fair offer before I put a foot in the mouth, or before I insult the owner. I myself think SCRAP PRICE should be close to fair, as that way if it is junk, I'm not too hurt on the deal.
