Vintage Scale Model United Air-Cooled Gas Engine. This engine has 6-inch flywheels and is machined from mostly cast iron and brass. It turns over and has compression and spark. It appears to be set up to run on propane although I have not run it. Engine looks to be complete; I don’t see any cracks or damage; there is some play in the crank bushings. Cosmetically: paint is faded and has chips, light surface rust and blemishes from age. (Battery and propane not included).

It’s a runner (see video). Have a good look: Pics and video give best description but here’s what I can tell you. It has the desirable factory butter churn / cream separator pulley on it. None of the aircooled fins are broken or repaired. There are some obvious detractions like the JB Weld repair to the carb. There is also a braze repair to the rocker arm bracket and the end of the rocker arm itself looks like it has been built up. Character dent in the gas tank. The paint is obviously showing it’s 20 year restoration age. The engine runs sweetly but there is a bit of air getting through the valves so she shows weak compression. The piston itself is tight as is most everything on the engine. Don’t hear much noise from those gears eh? The teeth and tolerances are fine. She is what she is. There’s a few around but trying to get a guy to sell one is like pulling hen’s teeth. This one is for sale. Lots of possibilities, lots of different prices that I just don’t know up front.
