Lister 12-2, fully restored and overhauled FS
« on: February 16, 2013, 12:40:17 AM »
I really hate to part with it, but only to fund another project, I am selling a fully restored and rebuilt Lister 12-2 with heavy flywheels.  This is a very nice piece that was found in rare condition.  So many times I have seen hammered on valve tappets and vice gripped nuts.  Nothing like that here.  This is a fine and excellent example that has received many complements.  Sale is for the engine only.  Cooling tank not included.







You have watched my restoration process here on the forum;

http://listerengine.com/smf/index.php?topic=5348.0

Available in Central Illinois for pickup or can ship.  Will ship for $250 crating and all costs.

$5250.

That was a fine engine. The buyer will enjoy a lifetime of trouble free operation.

It appears to be worth every penny.  It sure is pretty, Doc.

I have not yet been paid for the engine.  If this goes another 10 days w/o funds, it will be available again.  Same price; 5250 and buyer makes all shipping arrangements.  I will skid and shrink wrap.

Two parties have committed to purchase the engine but both have been unable to complete the transaction.  It is available again.  $5250.  You pick up or make shipping arrangements.

We all know that this engine is a great deal for the right people but sometimes a guy just has to "Man-Up" and admit that in a moment of excitement that he made a commitment he wasn't really ready to fulfill.  You know - like - "I'll marry you if you................".

You ever get paid for this?

Did you ever have this hooked up to a gen set, just wondering what kind of juice you could expect from it.

Thanks
