This is a pretty nice old 7hp Economy hit and miss gas engine. It’s in decent condition and should be a pretty straightforward restoration project. It has a rebuilt Webster magneto on it as can be seen. It turns over nicely with decent compression although it’s been sitting for many years. The flywheels run true. There are no cracks, breaks, or repairs anywhere execpt a weld on the rocker arm which could be dressed down or replaced if you so choose. There is also a freeze crack in the water jacket on the offside. It is not pushed out very much and should be an easy repair as well. It may even seal up with salt water or vinegar (if it even leaks at all). The head is not broken or repaired like so many of them. It has a homemade muffler on it. It will need a gas tank and a choke plate but the original check valve is in the hopper. It needs some general bearing tightening but there are many shims to remove. All in all this is a pretty decent engine and should be an easy project. I can deliver it for free to Coolspring, PA, later this year or LeSueur, MN, Baraboo, WI, Portland, IN, or Coolspring, PA, next year. It can also be picked up here. The pictures tell the story. The bigger engines don’t come along that often and really draw a crowd at the shows. Don’t miss it.
