i got in a bidding war the other day for a kiaser m 715 it has low miles and little rust. but i have been at a loss to find some thing to base a price own. i have done a bunch of searching and only found one for sale and heard one traded at 1400 in drag home condition. the one for sale was in the 5 to 6k range. anyone know of some for sale? that i can get a look at and get some general idea what i wan't to do with mine. thanks mike
I really like this one :D

I don't have much of an idea what these beasts are worth, but I saw one in Granbury the other day that was bad ass. I didn't get that good a look cause I just passed him on the road. About all I could tell was the he was running 44's. There was another built rig following the 715. Are there trails around there?

I saw one in Anchorage this summer the guy was desperate to sell for $4500. Stock, no rust. Would have bought except I have too many rigs already. I'd put a Cummins 6BT in with NV4500 or 5600.

I paid 1000 plus a pile of parts to get a 1968 M725. That's a 715 bodied out as a field ambalance. It was running with a bad carb & rotten radiator. The 350 & 420 was already installed. It's 9 feet tall. Getting ready to install a gear splitter, dual 205's & last but least air & heat in the beast.
