Hello, have a Norwood Lumbermate 2000 that my father bought a number of years ago that's been sitting in a shed for the last 7-8 years unused, and looking to sell it. Frame is 20'long, has the trailer/towing package, 23 HP Briggs twin engine, auto lube, plus we have a log loading package that's new in the boxes, never put on the machine. condition of the unit is pristine, in other words, it doesn't have alot of mileage on it. found some older posts discussing the value of these units but they are 5-6 years old. finding any other value related info online is difficult.
