Reply:Year and make on the 40kw generator would help but I'm guessing that it would be worth selling over scraping. 40kw is a decent size for a lot of applications.

Reply:Must be a 40,000 WATT or 40kw genny right? I'd see if you can find a greenhouse publication (magazine) and advertise the boiler.

Reply:I have to take the time and drive down and get more info.  Plus pictures.  I will try to have it before the weekend.  But I do know it is not the size of that blue monster.  If I remember right it's about the size of a SA300.I am tired of Ketchup, I want the Gravy...
Reply:Just happens that I saw one a bit larger than yours (60kw) on gov liquidators the other night:http://www.govliquidation.com/auctio...&convertTo=USDmight want to see what that fetches to get a rough idea of price, gotta wait a month though, looks like there are bunch of others on there as well.50kw : http://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa...37&acctid=229250kw : http://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa...73&acctid=3337ESAB Heliarc 252
Reply:Well I finally got my dad to get back to the shop so I could take pictures of the generator.  It's a Demco V6 Diesel 40KW  with only 171 hours on it.  Here are a couple of pics of it.  Do not mind the mess....LOL Attached ImagesI am tired of Ketchup, I want the Gravy...
