MTC G16 Restoration Project for sale. The A unit has had most
body work complete. Steel was replaced, not a bondo job. Two new
professionally built saddle tanks. Speedy vacuum pump with new rebuild kit and
crank assembly. Two new aluminum air horns. Transmission is completely
disassembled and includes new gear set (5 in total), seals, bearings, shims,
and new machined shafts (shafts have not been keyed). Four drives are also
disassembled and castings sandblasted and painted. Worm drive gears are in
excellent condition and include new bearings and seals. Input shafts are new
machined but not yet keyed. Dog bone couplings are not included but a drawing
can be supplied. There are no drive shafts. Two rebuildable MTC torque
converters are included. One professionally rebuilt Wisconsin V4 short block
and one running (distributor cap was recently broke off) Wisconsin V4 is
included. Two extra complete drive axle assemblies are included (flat top).
There are 6 drive axle assemblies in total.
The package also comes with 10 truck frames in various states
of disassembly (two are complete and one is broken at the brake shoe hanger).
Two MTC G16 passenger coaches. One is in poor state of repair the other fair.
All will need to be dipped or sandblasted and painted. Top and bottom beaver
tail castings are included.
There are many other parts for this train including a basket
of brake cylinders, bearing boxes, brake hangers and shoes, brake linkage, and
hand rails. Some new electric switches and bust bars.
Most of the difficult machining is complete. Anyone with an
eye for a G16 locomotive will see simple mechanics and "fit and finish" is
required to complete the project. This was a fun purchase and project as a
single man. I have a family now and other priorities.
Asking $18,500. Located in Southern Ontario, 45 minutes
from Buffalo, New York.
