There are 60 NSWFB Acco's coming up soon and go for about $5,000 each, maybe less this time due to so many :wink:

CFS vehicles normally sold via Govt auction.

www.auctions.sa.gov.au

Some complete, some not.   Last one went for about $5000 I think....

But they are generally 20 or so year old 24's & 34's... not high capacity pumps.

MFS pumpers are REALLY old when sold and have anything useful destroyed or made useless, all you are buying is the cab/chassis basically.
