    Taco, try taking wheelchairs like that to a rehab/nursing home, many have supply closets for people who can't afford wheelchairs, rolling walkers, it's really helpful to those folks. They will assess to see if it works. They may even have broken or non compliant things for you to take to scrap.

    Those are the kind of wheelchairs that will fit in most car trunks. We find them here mostly at the st. Vincent DePaul stores. It can save you a lot to buy them used. Wow,what a difference in the amount of stuff today. What a nice full van. Too bad every day can't be like that! Thanks Taco for another great grip.

    I had one of those exact generators, bought in 2000. Ran great in summer, but would not run right in winter. I did improve it by adding a bent sheetmetal "stove" to feed some exhaust heat to the long inlet pipe, but after a half hour the carb would ice up anyway. Looks like someone cut the generator wiring, so maybe the gen itself is bad, but the engine may still be OK. If it is, it would be a good one for a roto tiller, they had lots of torque. Or a go cart, etc, anything that is a "summer only" application. Cheers!

    I taught 34 years in Illinois. Snow days only happened when the bus company said they wouldn’t run or needed to start a few hours late due to icy conditions. 22 degrees would mean there was school. Maybe 10 or 20 below with wind chill would mean too cold!

It wasn’t a big deal. And yes I guess it was far but we did it. But if it was to bad out a friends mom would take use. That’s the way it was back in early 70s. Take care.
