Does anyone make a working 1 1/2 scale turbo generator anymore?????

SuperPowerDetail claims to sell working MO6 turbo generators, for around $500. But currently he is out of stock. See his website @ http://members.aol.com/retro625/index.htm
Try to get info on his products on this board. I heard he had difficulty with one part or with a supplier and took him a while to deliver the unit.
Dean Rich is also a turbo generator specialis @ http://cmsteamer.homestead.com if you buy the castings from a supplier like LS or RidingRailkits he will build one for you for a reasonable price. I recently bought an original, never used Moseley for $800. I do not think you can get anything cheaper.

The last time I talked to Ken at Super Power, he was not going to make working gens any more. In fact, I think I got one of the last ones he made. It works well, but all he is selling now is castings.

I have a new in the original box L S working M-O6 generator with data sheet. I purchased it a while back and have decided I'm not going to use it. I just tested it on air with a 14 volt bulb and it works fine. 8-10 volt bulb would be brighter. I will sell it for $700. including postage and insurance. Postal money order or bank check. ships next day. Personal check waits til clear. Sale is final and no return. US only please. If interested email me at bgsberk@erols.com ,I'll try to put up a photo.

I can't get a photo up. Email me direct and I'll email a pic to you.
