Generator replacement 1978 FC33

[swartzentruber1]

Eric,
Thanks for the information. That's a large up front investment if I
bought this WL, so the price will have to be right. He is asking
$20K OBO, which seems high for a rig with 250K miles and no
generator, but it had a brand new CAT installed 7000 miles ago.
Any thoughts . . .
