ship stated in the post that the mogul prefocus 3000W T32 incandescent lamp is no longer manufactured. It MAY be possible to retrofit a lamp such as the T/H 2000W CYX, very often used in 2K Fresnels.

At a minimum, the asbestos wiring should be removed and replaced by a professional, and the rest of the wiring inspected for age deterioration.

The optics however, cannot compare to a "modern" followspot such as the Altman Comet (not my favorite fixture, but probably acceptable for your needs, and purchasing a used one would be a better use of your limited funds).
