Thanks to all for your advice and encouragement. I fit in the middle of our pack with skills and knowledge. This is a wonderful site.

Last night I noticed a 235 in the McKinney area and a 216 in Dennison. Both are described as running like sewing machines and were removed from projects for huge motors. Both are asking $300 and were on Craiglist.Dallas.

Any suggestions on looking at them or experiences with purchasing like this? Are any of these people on this site or have looked at these engines?

TIA
