Found this sitting by a dumpster at the John Amos Power Plant in St. Albans, WV while working there on a maintenance outage. I was able to get a scrap equipment pass for it, but know nothing of it history. I assume it has been there since the plant was built in 1968-71. It sat out in the rain for few day before I got it, but much to my surprise it runs pretty decent. It is missing the wheels and wheel covers, I'll make new ones. Will do a complete restore this summer. Price was great, free.
