Thanks for the reply guys. I am in Columbus Ohio. If I do not get anyone closer, I may follow up with you.
Are you planning on driving to pick up the blowers or is shipping cost really that much more expensive if it is a few hundred miles farther?

They are over 200 pounds. I would have to use a common carrier and that gets expensive.
I can get rebuilt one from a place in Indianapolis for $1600. I was willing to drive a bit to pick one up. But both the offers above are 12++++ hours away.

how much for both?
Any pics, especially of the inside?
How many hours on em if you know?
Do the still free spin or are they locked up?

IF low enough price as I would have to ship, I will look into getting them shipped to columbus.

Never realized they was that heavy, I looked and a 47 blower which we run is over 150 lbs.

Just took pictures, send a phone number and I'll text them to you. What kind of engine will you be using? I also have an Wisconsin 65hp air cooled engine you might be interested in. My cell is 251 391 5569.
