Awl--

I currently have 2 "Rotary" brand 2 hp hydraulic pump motors w/ approx. 2
gal reservoirs, levers, 'n'alladat...
Are these things expensive, valuable, otherwise useful??
Admittedly missed Ignoramus' thread on hydraulics, been meaning to catch it!

I have dibbs on 4 more, altho I don't know if they are Rotary brand.
They came off some substantial-sized car lifts, much too big for me to
entertain, altho I'd love one in my driveway!
Been thinking vaguely of building a lift for my car. Pumps, a ram, some
iron, chain, and a plug! I guess i'd have to be the guinea-pig-mechanic,
eh?

Passed on that Allis Chalmers motor--probably woulda burnt down my house,
starting it up! Mebbe blacked out my block!

Go visit... what's the name.. Surplus Sales and Northern Hydraulics to
look at the handful like yours they sell. The pumps, I believe, are sort of
common arrangements with various equipment, like electric log splitters,
assorted styles of lifts, machinery, and so forth. I'm sure Rotary just
puts their name on them, but I'm not sure. I doubt it's worth their money
to have a private line when there's lots of competition out there for just
that stuff.

Yes, you did. Send one to me. I'll help you dispose of it.
Got my address?

P.S: What price did they get for those things?

Well figure they're worth around $600-$800 new should give you a
idea.
