1920's UNITED MOTORS SERVICE hit & miss engine DELCO-LIGHT DEMONSTRATOR SIGN

Delco-Light/United Motors Service Co. Was a subsidiary of General Motors (GM). The Delco-Light Farm Plant consisted of a gas powered stationary engine with a built-in 32-volt D. And was very successful in providing electric power to country residents beginning in 1916. A Delco-Light shallow/deep well pump was also available to provide indoor running water. This was quality made of heavyweight painted canvas and was used to both protect and advertise the Delco-Light/Pump display unit. A UMS Sales Representative would travel around rural areas demonstrating the Light Plant & Pump to potential buyers. Most likely dates from the 1920′s to early 1930′s era and was found many years ago in the attic of an ancient United Motors Service Dealer. 45″ long x 46″ wide (at base) x 18-1/2 tall. Is somewhat of an elongated-Pyramid shaped. CONDITION : Good used especially for its age. Has some paint loss/wrinkling/light soiling/some small tears, holes/an old patch repair/etc. When cleaning with soap & water I noticed that the painted graphics are still strongly adhered to the canvas. One side is better than the other. Please closely examine our photos for additional details. Please see my NOS Parts and Automobilia Listings.

Here is a Coldwell Cub lawnmower engine. There are no CBWs in the casting that I can see. The engine turns over and has good compression. There is a flat spot in the flywheel that rubs upon rotation. I believe this is from the late 20′s to early 30′s. Please view pictures for best description. It is dirty, oily and could use a good cleaning. See my other listings for water pump jacks.

Here we have a nice looking but broke Maytag washing machine with a Hit n Miss Model 92 kick start gas motor on it. With Serial No-35478 The motor feels like it has compression but the needle valve for carburetor is broken off and I have a new one that will go with it. I haven’t checked it for spark yet. The top wringer assembly is broke off as you can see in the pictures. It’s a clean break but I don’t know if it can be welded or not. The washer it self looks great and is nice n clean. I live 4 miles off of Pa turnpike and I’m one mile from Rts 100 & 202 and business Rt 30 at zip code 19380 Exton , West Chester, area Pa. Yes The gear case handle turns freely and when lever is turned one way the rollers turn in one direction and when turned the other the rollers turn a different direction.

1 920′s John Deere Horse and a Half Hit & Miss Gas Engine. It is in nice “as found” condition. It doesn’t look like it was left out. Light oxidation on the flywheel which will clean. Much original finish and details left to see. We replaced the rocker spring and there is a homemade choke flapper on it. The gas tank is crudy but we been able to get it to run on its own a few times. This video shows it firing up with a shot of starting fluid. Came with this cart and we fastened it so it is mobile. Check out the photos and the video. Flywheels are about 18 in diameter. We would be happy to provide additional pictures upon request.
