restore a 1946 Lincoln for me

anyone want to take on a restoration job and get paid for it ?

suit semi retired/retired mechanically/engineering/ electrically minded person.

1946 Lincoln shorthood petrol driven welder with continental f162 four cylinder engine.

this machine needs visual inspection/tear down, machining if necessary. magneto overhaul, radiator test, fuel tank clean out, fuel lines and filter, carb tear down and rebuild probably, check key components like the idler, governor, water pump etc

these are legendary machines, prized by U.S. pipe welder a for their great arc and simplicity.

the continental were used in forklifts and tractors, pumps and compressors up until the 1970s.

dividec into two sections, there is the motor/engine side and the generator side.
i have lots of literature on this if anyone wants to get involved.

renumeration negotiable.....east Coast Australia preferably.

share this info with mates.

i can't do the work myself, but would love to see this machine restored and welding.
