looking to buy older sa200, redface, shorthood or 200d. i am located in louisiana 3 miles west of baton rouge. have bobcat 250 but looking to upgrade to something water cooled. also would be interested in used pipepro or pro 300 miller but have had no luck finding any machine. can't afford to shell out 13k on new one. thanks in advance, mikeroubique@hotmail.com 225 413 4327 mike.

I bought my sa 200 from AL but check both AL and MS on craislist I know i have seen alot of sa 200s in both those states lately, usually there more north. i've got a friend who has two of them but I already asked and he won't sell either of them.

i am undecided whether or not to part with it just yet because or the 10kw generator and all the lovely hurricanes lately. on the brighter side there are a few for sale i know of around here if they are still available:                          http://www.louisianasportsman.com/classifieds.php?sec=classifieds&act=full&adID=67204#pictures135505                   http://www.louisianasportsman.com/classifieds.php?sec=classifieds&act=full&adID=65525#pictures132290

that is more than i am looking to spend but i think it's worth it and you did a damn fine job restoring it. i'm trying to outfit a rig truck just in case i get laid off i'll have a backup plan. work is steady down here for now so i'm gonna stick with the contractor i'm with for but you never know they could send me walking tomorrow. anyway i sure appreciate the offer you do good work. will tell all the guys on the firing line down here about it. mike

You find you a welder yet? How I found mine was getting up every morning early and looking at all the states I was willing to travel to and searching for lincoln welder. Found a nice Sa200 in Birmingham and a friend on here(hillbilly) picked it up for $1000, I did'nt have $1k available. He said it runs like a top. I found one for $150 up north and was late on it then found the one I picked up for $100 up around Toledo, Ohio. Needs work, not a welding machine yet but well within my budget. I spent a few hours a day on craiglist so I could find it right when they posted it. If I see any on craigslist while I'm lookin around I'll let you know. What price range are you looking for?
Parent - By chris2698 (****) Date 06-14-2009 00:10
100 dollars hell maybe I need to do the same I would have never thought that dang cheap

no luck yet but much thanks for the pm message and all the info. i was trying to stay around 1800.00 or less because i don't really have to run it 10hrs a day just yet. i posted an add on craigslist all around louisiana but had to delete it cause of spammers. your friend got a hell of a deal for 1000.00, and it runs and welds! anyway thanks for all the info and let me know if i can help yall out.

To deal with spamming on Craigslist: choose the option not to show your email at the top as normal and put it in the add slightly modified. Example:
  Please contact me johndoe at gmail.com

Do this and the spam drops to near zero, they have programs that simply go through all these pages and shoots spam off whenever it finds an email address.
