A good friend of mine with an empty one ton van is leaving Montana and driving to Pennsylvania and back sometime in late July. It is shown in the second photo of this listing. I hope it is correct so please let me know if it is not. And it is now included with this engine even though it is not yet shown in the photos. Please let me know if you have or know where I might get these original or reproduction parts. This relatively late John Deere produced 3 HP Model H Waterloo Boy gasoline engine has a serial number of 228,881. Both of the fragile original brass tags are in very nice original condition. According to the site Waterloo Gasoline Engine Co. This engine was built in 1922 with production ending in 1923 when John Deere introduced the Model E 1-1/2, 3 and 6 HP gasoline engines. This engine is stuck and is missing the fuel tank, governor cover, connecting rod guard, intake valve spring and cylinder drip oiler. As is often the case, someone a long time ago substituted a spark plug for the original igniter, Since these photos were taken I found the correct Wizard igniter and magneto mount and it is shown in the second photo of this listing. This engine is definitely worthy of a restoration so any help in locating these missing parts mentioned above would be greatly appreciated. The speed control lever still moves but everything else seems to be seized up. The cylinder head has been frozen and broken and arc welded with nickel rod. The cylinder water jacket and water hopper appear to be fine with no cracks or welds. The very fragile and often broken original rocker arm is fine. The pivot for the rocker arm is broken but both of the pieces are present. One piece is still bolted to the cylinder head while the outer part is attached to the original rocker arm. Someone drilled and tapped a pair of holes in the back of the top of the water hopper to attach a pair of strap iron pieces that may have held a gas tank at one time. These straps also attached to the back of the engine base where the connecting rod cover originally attached. This engine still has traces of it’s original John Deere paint intact and appears to never have been repainted. If you collect John Deere tractors or engines, this engine would be a logical addition to your collection. I have owned 3 of the earlier Waterloo Boy engines but this it the only one I have ever owned that was actually built by John Deere after they acquired the Waterloo Gasoline Engine Company. Many of my friends in the collectible car, truck and tractor hobbies are very happy with using Fastenall. They normally charge considerably less than commercial trucking companies do. I will be adding more information soon. The item “A 1922 John Deere Waterloo Boy 3HP Model H Hit & Miss Old Gas E Engine D B” is in sale since Friday, June 27, 2014.
