Hobart Welder Value?

Good evening to all, I have a lead on a 2cyl wisconsin hobart welder in good running condition needs repainted bad, has 100ft. of lead and hood with it, what do you guys think the value of it is? I dont really need it but boy I like that old equipment, Thanks DW
 
I figured at least 5 myself, he's asking 2 for it the leads would be worth that if in good shape, he said he had it in a welder repair shop near here and they went through it I'm gonna go look at it this evening, thanks for the reply, DW
 
Well, if the engine is good, you about 25% there. But I would find
out how good the welding part of this thing is. If there is 100 feet
of cable, then they've been running it at a higher speed than
normal. You're going to get voltage drop over that distance and
therefore have to crank it up. I know we're talking amps when
welding, but the voltage part is important. But if it welds OK with a
1/8 inch rod, it's probably OK.

Also, if it's AC and DC, try them all out first. 6011 AC, 6010 DC+,
7014, AC, DC-, DC+
 
100 ft. of cable isn't much and it depends on the size of cable. I'd guess it's DC output. A 6010 could verify this. Dave
 
Thanks for the information, I bought the hobart for $150.00 very good deal!!! extra hood and all, the welder needs the paint stripped and repainted, does anyone know the color scheme wasnt it gold color?
