Here is a restoration project. Just got this from ebay for $465 and I cant believe the shape its in. The silver paint is gone, but beyond that it is perfect. Not one messed up screw. In fact all the screws came out with the turn of a screwdriver. Not one rusted up. gaskets appeared to be original. Cast brass cover on cylinder seems to be perfect, but I don't yet know how to remove it. Other examples of this engine ive seen have two screws holding it. Amazing for a hundred year old engine. Its a 1 1/8" bore x 2" stroke. This should come out very nicely! Anyone else have experience with these engines?
