One, possibly two engines for sale on Government Liquidation

Unread post by rickf » January 14th, 2017, 10:06 am

Here are one and it looks like maybe two engines in that crate for sale on G/L in Philadelphia. I would go for these but I will be getting home from the hospital the day before from my back surgery so no can do. I see it is a Non DLA sale so it is a private sale, could be two in the crate and only one for sale but hey, it is an auction. Bid what you want to pay and if it goes higher, no loss to you.

You'll need to add;

A 18% Buyer's Premium applies to this lot.

Anyone who has ever dealt with G/L is used to the "Buyers Premium". 18% is getting up there, I hadn't noticed it was that high. It is usually around 12%.

Those pictures are of two engines, if you look closely the bell housings are different colors, the fuel line and filter is different in one picture and the speedo cable is different so there are two motors there. They are early style bells also with the manual starter disengage hole.

Everybody read the fine print. The engine for sale most likely is NOT the one in the picture. The picture is just a representative sample.
Read description.

AM General M151 4 Cylinder Gas Mutt Engine and Transmission 1/4 Ton Jeep. This Listing is for a takeout engine with transmission. Engine will turn over 360 degrees. Sold as is for parts or rebuild. Picture is for demonstration, actual unit will be in similar condition. Est weight 800 lbs
