  1. Thanks for the info, I have searched the Internet for 2 days and learned 100% more in a couple of hours from you guys - thanks! A couple of questions - How old is it likely to be? Would this 40KW V8 model hold any particular significance for a collector or not? I was considering using it to power my property in France (possibly cheaper than getting the electric connected) although I guess this is going to drink the diesel being a V8. Currently the electrical output has a fault and needs fixing, would I be able to get a service manual for the engine and alternator control gear? Otherwise is the braked trailer likely to be worth anything and just scrap the generator set? I appreciate your help on this. Thanks - Scoobie
  2. Hi - I would be most grateful if someone could help identify this. It's on a 2 wheel hydraulically braked trailer with a badge saying Rubery Owen. The main control panel says Lucas Aerospace (So I presume its some form of aircraft ground support generator). Its 3-phase and I think the diesel engine may be Perkins (but that's a guess). Any one ?? Main control panel - plate says Lucas Aerospace Connection panel (to link 2 or more generators?) on side Is this a Perkins lump? Thanks Scoobie :-)
  3. Hi - thanks for letting me join your community. I have always had a fascination for old technology - mainly electronic stuff although I have had 2 series II landrovers and have a garage full of other old mechanical bits and pieces. Thanks again Scoobie :nut:
