Well, I ended up getting time this afternoon to go and take a look. Told him I'd pick it up tomorrow if it was worth doing so. Well, I passed on it. Fire was started from the engine block heater and it did more damage to the motor area than I had understood it to. (It actually happened two weeks ago.

Only good parts I saw were from the transmission back excluding the one tire, and the loader. Front end was also good with the exception of one front tire. It was damaged also.
