A 2005 Sterling Acterra with a 70-foot Altec aerial bucket and a CAT diesel, sold as-is. Utility-equipment dealers, tree-service outfits, and aerial-part resellers are the buyers, and it suits parts-out or refurbish plays. The main boom does not raise, the passenger steps have broken welds, and the ignition panel is broken, so verify the boom fault is hydraulic or structural before bidding.
Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
