1960s/1970s - Wilesco D16 Live Steam Engine - Air Tested - Gift Boys Men # 0230

Description: LIVING ESTATE SALE (Details at the end of description) For your consideration is a Wilesco D16 made in Germany in the 1960s/1970s. This Live Steam Engine is not the prettiest Wilesco D16 in the world but it does have good bones.It has been air tested (video) and performed well.Except perhaps for a dried up 50+ years old gasket, it should not give much trouble to operate on steam. There is quite a bit of surface rust, mostly on the burner tray. A fresh coat of paint would be nice. It is complete but not all parts are original.The smoke stack is a new and original D16 Wilesco but it is not the original color.The whistle/pressure relief valve weight is not original and appears homemade but it does the job.The little red condensation tray was missing. A new Wilesco tray has been used but, as the design having changed, the base had to be modified accordingly (photo). You will need some solid fuel (anywhere camping supplies are sold) and distilled water is strongly recommended. This model is still in production, with some modifications. Here is the link : https://www.wilesco-shop.de/en/stationary-steam-engines/d16-steam-engine.htmlAt the current exchange rate, a new one is listed for $365 (327€). Please select the shipping system that suits you best. Condition : This is not the prettiest Live Steam Engine in the world but it has "good bones". It has been air tested (video) and performed very well. Except for perhaps a dried up 50+ years old gasket, it should not give much trouble to operate on steam. it is complete but not all parts are original (see description for details). A bit of surface rust, especially on the burner tray. I would rate it a C5/C6. VERY IMPORTANT : I am offering four shipping options. You can check the cost by clicking next to shipping on "See Details" or make your choice at take-out. The default is usually UPS Ground as Expedited Shipping can be expensive and is not necessarily more reliable. Please keep in mind that I do not control the cost of shipping that is calculated by eBay. Free pick-up is always available (Rock Hill, SC). LESS IMPORTANT : Items are packed and ready for shipping when I make the listing. Combined shipping cannot be done if one item is larger than 8 x 8 x 8 packed. If it is possible, smaller items can be combined upon request prior to the payment. Guarantee : Item is guaranteed to be as described. I am a very honest seller hoping to deal with honest buyers. If I know something is wrong, I will disclose it but I certainly can make an honest mistake and will do my very best to correct it. Warning : Many of these older collectibles are not in compliance with today's safety standards. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine whether or not they are still suitable for their intended purpose. Adult supervision is indispensable with any steam engine. Packaging :Items are packed carefully and should remain undamaged through a standard level of care during handling. LIVING ESTATE SALE DETAILS :I had my first steam engine when I was 9 years old. That was 65 years ago. I have been collecting them for 25 years and I am now 74. None of my descendants is interested in the collection, so I decided that it was time to liquidate. As of September 2024, I still have over 1,400 engines of all kinds to list. I believe in full disclosure. It takes me about an hour to list one item, between the assessment, the testing, the video, the photos, the description and the very careful packaging. I try to have very reasonable prices. At comparable quality, my prices are probably the lowest on the market.MS/AI
