Keep a healthy supply of gasoline on hand. You're gonna need a lot of it.

I didn't know they made 8500W generators in that style.
Good price.

Looks like a great deal if it works or doesn't take much to get it going.

I will evaluate it and maybe just fix and sell.... I am looking for other stuff, like a compressor and a welder so ...I might do some bartering or something...
My 4500 watts works fine but it throws valve spring retainers and I repaired it this year and it works fine now so I will have to evaluate...

What size /kind of welder are you looking and air compressor? I may know where there's some near by.

Probably a wire feed welder and a decent size compressor...60 gallon with a oiled single stage type...

FWIW, there's a bunch of "tombstones" at the sale in Farmville Saturday. A few cheap Migs. How'd you make out on your generator? There's also a bunch of new Florescent fixtures there. I'm guessing they'll go cheap. They are 120V-277V ballast in them. I took one apart yesterday and checked.

What sale are you talking about? I am getting it delivered Monday as I could for $70 by truck or drive to Potsmouth and spend that much. I am riding in a charity breast cancer ride this morning so...
