Does anyone have any opinions about the worth of my MD. The motor was overhauled about 200 hrs ago and the transmissions bearings were replaced at the same time. new front tires and tubes with 90% duels on the rear. The only thing not redone is the paint. (currently in process)
Also does anyone know if I can put duels on it using the factory cast centers. thanks
Brad

I have my own ideas about what things are worth (to me). Forget the paint, if I was in the market for one, I'm not, I've bought a C and 460 in the last year; I would give you $3000, and would probably refuse the duals because they take up too much room in my building. Provided it is as you say, and the injectors, etc are ok. For that price I would take may chances on the head -- very few are not cracked, doesn't necessarily mean they are going to crash. I'm very picky about paint and would do that myself. For cast duals, I have seen pictures--I think you dish in inside one in, the outside one out. I think that will work on your 88 inch axles.

The MD has a bad reputation because of head problems. They are okay if you pay attention to the water level and proper shutdown procedures. The problem however is that they are so old now that the damage to them has already been done. In short there aren't very many good ones around.I just looked at one with the clutch out of it. Poor tires, needs paint and a clutch. They push it into a dryer set up and use it to power the dryer. They wanted $750. I know a guy who has a SMD in great shape for $2500. The duals can be done easily with factory wheels. Simply reverse the wheel on first set and put the dish in. Put the outer set on as normal.

Prices are all over the place on "em. In my opinion, if you take the total amount spent on the rebuild (exclude labor) and divide by two, you would be close to a selling price. Duals with the factory centers are doable.
