I have someone offering to buy the generator/welder unit we have but I'm not sure what its worth.

Its called a weldanpower 175D - lincon electrc/lombardini. electric start. bit older model but is in good nick and pretty handy to have out where we are (cause I don't have a 1km long extension lead [8D])

well it did run back when the old man was alive, but I have only since found it during a clean up so when I asked about selling it I was told to hang onto it for a while cause we will use it if it runs out on the farm, First thing I have to do is drag it up the damn hill and weld the busted arse grid on the driveway, shit like that.

I don't have any pics at the moment I'll take some and show you what size it is. the guy who made me an offer runs a giant welder on the back of his truck and needed it to get em out of the shit while their one is getting fixed.

I was offered $1k "As is" unknown condition. We have decided to keep it for now cause we need it but might end up selling it in a month or so. I let the guy borrow it while their big fuck off unit (on the back of a ute) is down getting repaired, and will have it back on friday. Can't find pics of the damn thing anywhere and forgot to take them before they picked it up.
I'll try find pics of an identical unit.
