Any reason to keep A/C welder?

My new Everlast 255EXT arrived today. I also have a 180 Mig Unit, a nice Plasma cutter, and an old Lincoln 225 Tombstone AC unit. Is there any reason to keep the old Lincoln 225 ? I can't think of anything it can do, that the others can't. Am I missing something here?

Going to put them all on one cart, and I don't see a need to add the weight of the Tombstone.

Often the tombstones are let go once you get a new inverter welder. You’re right, you have all processes covered with the other boxes.

Only as a backup welder

Instant hot dog cooker. :lol:
Unless it's got sentimental value, no point in keeping it.

The good thing is there’s a steady market for old tombstone welders. Always someone looking to start out. I’ve bought 2 or 3 just because they were less than 50$ and then blew em out and made shure they worked. Then sold them for 100$.
