But I have no idea what to do with it....

I obviously have no use for it, I don't even know what it does! It came with an electric truck I purchased to retro-fit into a food truck. When I got it, I was told I could probably sell it for a decent amount of cash.. It turns on and should be working, may need some repairs, not sure.

model: tmd27
spec no: 4744
seriel no: 98010352

If anyone has advice on how I go about selling this bad boy, or would like to make an offer please reply! My business partner and I are two hardworking girls who are throwing everything away to follow our dreams and open a food truck, any little extra cash we can bring into the mix puts us one step closer to achieving our goals! Thanks in advance for your feedback :)

It would be nice to know where you are located.

The welder is a Lincoln SA 300. The engine is a tmd27.

How many hours on the hour meter?

Photos?

Hi. Thanks for your post! The meter has 773 hours on it and I am located in northern va. I have pictures but for some reason cannot load them on this site, I can email them to you if you send me your address.

Hi there,

Nice work on the new business venture. You should be able to make some decent cash on the welder. However, just be careful of people who may try to rip you off because you are not sure of the value of your machine. Do some research on Ebay and Craigslist. That should give you a reasonable idea of a price to put on it.

Try this link. I dont know anything about it but it might help. There's a buy used welders section on the right hand side.

Thanks so much for your post! I joined this forum in hopes to run into people like you who could send us in the right direction of figuring out the cost of this machine. It's great to know nice people are out there that are willing to lend advice.

Have a wonderful day!
