My friend has asked me to help him sell one of his engines. He has way too many ( in my opinion) including ride on…so he’s thinning the herd.
Here are the details as provided by him.
I will add that I did the RC conversion for him and that he takes very good care off his stuff. Please note that he likes to “weather his engines”. This was not clear when I helped him sell one two years ago and the buyer while happy with the engine was not happy with the weathering… thought it was factory paint.
Please email me at [email protected] with any questions.
PRICE $4950.00 US plus shipping and insurance.
