Looking to place these items in new homes – described with what I and the owner know about them. This is a unique one! This is an original John Deere Stationary Engine, number 270-333 as marked on the plate, and it has been in storage for a good number of years in his shop. Piece dates to 1927 and many folks locally think it probably ran a water well or some other such application back in the day. The unique part of this piece is you can still see the original lettering graphics for John Deere on each side of the cooling tank. My guess is that it would probably clean up pretty nice with some work and some elbow grease. I did turn the crank on it a number of times and you do get some compression resistance at regular intervals, but that is all that is known – no idea how that compression is or if it needs parts or work. Neat item that you don’t often see in this condition for sale – keep as it is and get it running or fully restore and show it. Item is located in Watseka, IL (about 1.5 hours south of Chicago, Illinois and about 15 miles from the Illinois and Indiana border). Please call before coming. If you have questions, I will be happy to try to help etc… The item “Original John Deere Stationary Engine, Hit & Miss, Original Letter Graphics Nice” is in sale since Monday, October 31, 2016.
