Title: Spectrum 45 ton side-rod diesel engine
Post by: fxb1957 on February 01, 2010, 07:31:21 PM
I wish to purchase one of these engines at a decent price... It looks like all the discount places have sold their stock, and eBay has two but at more than 4 times the sale price...

If you want to sell yours or know where I could find one, I would appreciate the information !

Thanks

Francois

Sounds like he might be in France, at a guess.

I at one time had four, all gone now, wish I had them all back..esp. since I was fortunate enough to buy them for $60 each...(if I'd only known then....)

Nope, not France but the french part of Switzerland.

Having family in the States and visiting frequently the US, I have my items shipped to a US address and pick it up when possible.

So, if you have one of these 45 ton available, do not hesitate to let me know!

They sell here in New Zealand for about $600 but they are few and far between.  I sold mine 2 years ago for $300, should have kept it but the desire for a Shay was too much.

Francois - there is one here in UK at the back2bay6 store - http://www.back2bay6.net/80415/info.php?p=11

Price is £240, colour is yellow and it has sound fitted.

Take off the 17.5% tax and that's the shipping paid for.
