And if you need parts, I have a rebuilt Perkins 4-108, good radiator and frame and 90% of the generator head - just saying........

And I have a Thermoking diesel engine and 7kw generator head that could be mounted on it that I need to clear out of my garage.

Good project for someone at a good price.

We got a lot of new busnuts here in the past few months. Surely they're gonna need parts and projects :)

gmpd4104,

By coincidence I've just been doing some research on these gensets.

It appears that these gensets are pretty old with parts problems and the Perkins engines may be out of production. The good part is they appear to be durable and reliable.

I hope someone will jump in here who really knows the facts because I really wasn't able to get absolutely accurate info.
