It addresses some pretty interesting ideas on where the demolition may be headed...

Looks like the 148' Cat 385 we built for Nacirema a few years ago.

It really depends on the options.
-Cameras
-Dust Suppression
-Computer Control System
-Hydraulics
-Cab modification
-Machine and cab guarding
-Boom height vs. tool weight vs. working angle
-Transport options

Could be anywhere from $200-$450K+. That does not include the base machine. We have done everything from PC 300's up to EX 1200 and PC 1250's. Every job is a little different.

So the biggest base machine and the whole kit and kaboodle fully loaded every option with the highest reach possible, what would a company be looking at after all is said and done. For example what did Ron Callari and Grace pay over at Mazzocchi for that new job they picked up a few years back. The machine had a chain on the back of the boom.

I heard the number was something in the neighborhood of $3.1 - $3.3 million. I think Nacirema from NJ was 2nd.

I also heard from some of Grammercy's people that the job is not shaping up to be profitable at all. They are just hoping to make money on an environmental change order, asbestos I think.
