Cat 983 wanted

Looking for a 983 to work in the Cameroon. Neil Beecher is alive and well and has a contract that really could do with a 983 or two. I believe he has sourced one in North Wales, and I believe there are even a few already in the Cameroon. I would not expect the condition of those to be anything to write home about though. We have located several in the States, but transportation costs are obviously greater. We will also have to add 40% import duty to any we buy outside the Cameroon, plus possible bribes to the customs. They seem to see it as a God given right to rob white folk.

Any info on possible machines would be very helpful.

Dave Skillings has a nearly new 983B with new Cat undercarriage and the later 3408 motor.
Full Rops and aircon.
Mint.
Tell Neil to get his details from Jimmy Gaughans.
