Antique Hit & Miss Fairbanks Morse gas engine, Gas Engine Magazine Featured

Featured on the cover of Gas Engine Magazine, Volume 30, No. Has been stored indoors ever since. I bought it from Joe Olsen of Ukiah, CA in 1993 and have shown it at CA branch 31 Gas-Ups. The engine is mounted on a special, solid oak truck, fancy striping, and a unique undercut which allows turning the engine around in a radius equal to the length of the truck. The solid oak rails (6-1/2″ x 3-1/3″) have a dozen coats of marine varnish over the striping and lettering. The metal guard over the undercut is polished copper with brass screws. The engine has an in-line spark indicator light (from a motorcycle) which shows when a spark is sent to the spark plug. A solar charger is mounted on the battery box’s lid to keep the battery charged. Available only until Thursday, October 24, 2024 in Fairfax, CA.
