    The thing with aluminium is that it time hardens.
    The older it gets the harder and more brittle it gets.
    The cracks don't seem to bad and don't seem to be in a main stress area.
    If they are repaired properly and proper radius reinforcement gussets put in then I would not worry about the cracks.
     
    BryRylanKW Thanks this.

    I would offer 15 to 18 hundred, maybe 2 grand. that is what it would be worth to me.. Unit looks good, floor seems ok. 40 foot length is against you:biggrin_25513:. Make sure it is long enough for intended usage and bridge formula weight. Ravens is a good name. They could possibly get more $$$ by junking it out. Aluminum is sky high now,or at least it was.
