2004 Caterpillar 938G Wheel Loader

Purple WaveEquipment📍Artesia, NM

Moderate damage flagged

GovAuctions Summary

A 2004 Caterpillar 938G wheel loader with 8,716 hours, an enclosed cab, and forks plus a 3.25 cubic yard bucket. Contractors, farm operations, and loader parts sellers are the typical buyers, so this is a resell-as-is or parts play. Check the cracked glass, since the listing flags it and it may affect cab safety, and note the missing battery cover and key before bidding.

Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
