Maybe. I just failed to sell the old frozen Lincoon SAE-300
for $299. A guy who saw the ad and didn't bid is coming over tomorrow
to see it, though. I'd like to get at least $200 out of it, but I'll
settle for scrap price if needed. sigh

Bids?

Crap~ Is that thing still unsold? Know anyone coming down to
California that can haul it? Ill swap you something worth more than you
are asking for it, and help with some gas money.

unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the
proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Good possibility it is a Lincoln SA-200. One of those in somewhat
running condition and without MAJOR issues like an extremely tired
engine might be worth the $350 or much more. Or much less. If the engine
works, doesn't smoke too bad, and it welds (more or less), it should be
worth the money.

I bought one for $350, and ended up putting $600 in it. Main thing is to
see if it will crank, and the engine will turn. After that, you have to run
the engine to test the electrical components. If it runs and the generator
is good, you can fix all the rest of the stuff for not a lot of money. The
circuit board is $100. The other stuff is just mechanical. Make sure it's
all there. The Continental engines that were put in there are just about
bulletproof.
