    This is a Whole House type Genset... Onan JC 12Kw.... 1800 Rpm.... with Constavolt Battery charger and some more associated stuff... The guy that wrote up the Auction Notice, obviously has NO Knowledge of Gensets and such equipment. Going cheap at the moment.....

    If you have the manuals @BTPost , does it specify a weight? How big a truck would it need?

    Dang WD, I was hoping one of you NC Monkeys would get it..... I had 2 of those Gensets here back in the day, and they were Robust, and bulletproof to operate..... If I see another similar down there I will post it.....
