Question on gas driven Lincoln Weldenpower

I have a Lincoln gas driven welder, it's a 225 amp AC/DC with 6000 watts of auxiliary power, it has a twin cylinder Onan engine on it.
Welder has about 20 hours on it, and it's always been stored inside of my barn, never seen rain.
I want to sell it, and was wondering what it might be worth?
I bought this unit new in the 80's.

Thanks.

Re: Question on gas driven Lincoln Weldenpower

What's it called? Do you have a code #, photos, anything so we can get a handle on what you have? Not enough info except to give a very rough estimate. With what you gave us an OLD welder like that is worth...maybe $300.00?

Re: Question on gas driven Lincoln Weldenpower

The market varies from one region to another but I've seen them advertised for $5-800 in so-so condition but running/working w/o leads to twice that and more in very good condition with leads. It would have slightly more value if it has the CV (Constant Voltage) setting to make it more suitcase MIG welding friendly.

With only 20hrs and being stored inside I would imagine it's in very good shape but keep in mind it's still almost 30 years old.

The above post is wrong.

Constant CURRANT=VV....same thing. Before you sell it, make SURE it runs fine.And, welds fine . It should ,with such low hours.maybe polish it up, also.

John!

Depending on where you are located in Mi, I might be interested in it.
It sounds like it might be about the same age as the one I have!

Send me a PM!

Ken.
