This gen set was included with my purchase of a 1952 M38 Cdn Army jeep that I got in December of 2015. It's a US Army, O'Keefe & Merritt 10Kw AC, 28V DC model that was purchased by the Canadian Forces some time in the 50's. The only reason the PO bought it was that it has the same engine as the jeep (L-134 Willys flathead) and could be used as a spare if needed. I've seen a youtube video of it running and I actually fired it up myself on a temporary fuel tank. The waterpump was a known leaker (bad) so I only ran it for a few seconds with no coolant. As with everything in my barn, if it's going to occupy space it better look/run nice. I've sent the waterpump out for a rebuild and started tearing into this in depth. This engine sports a rebuild tag from the Royal Canadian Electrical Mechanical Engineers (RCEME) from July 1969 with '0' listed on all componebts meaning no oversizing on bearings, pistons, etc was needed. I sourced some period correct paint for the exterior and any motors touched by our rebuild facilities were adorned in Ford Grey. The faint numbers you can see is what's left of the Canadian Forces Registartion number which was buried under preservation grease. I was a little too rough with cleaning and now I don't know what it was My bad! I'll update this thread as I move along.
