I have an extremely heavy duty wheelbarrow that dates back to the 1930s and 40s. My dad's oldest brother was a contractor at that time and this was one of his wheelbarrows. In the eighties I rescued two of these and I completely restored one. This is the second one and I never got around to it. His kind of need to restore one of these. I sandblasted the other one and coated it with an epoxy finish. I made new handles for it. This one has cast iron axle brackets and a very heavy gauge metal body. The legs are very heavy gauge flat bat. After I restored the other one, I used it for years. I eventually sold it for $300. This one could be just as nice if someone wanted to take the time. $80
