I think it's a 29, with a 4 speed and disc wheels. Worm drive rear, cut down frame and driveshaft,
yea about the high dollar parts on that thing are the 4 speed bellhousing only, and if the rearend is any good with a high speed ratio, and the crane itself.

thats the downside to piles like this as you would need a decent trailer with a winch on it just to get it home to disassemble and scrap about 70-80% of it...
