First one I've seen. The 3 cyl engine about half way down in the link below may be a Gray, different series.

It is a 3 cylinder "T"
There are a few around however most of them are twins. There is a real nice single right here in my neighborhood.
Here is the pic again that I enhanced as good as the original pic quality would allow

This post required more gymnastic photo management than most I've seen on this site ?
This is the only other Gray Model T triple that I am aware of, its in the Antique Boat Museum Clayton New,york.
It's missing its cylinder head "Hats"
Model T with one hat off !
This is a very nice Gray twin T that is gasoline and kereosene capable as shown at Calvert Marine museum 1906
This man said he was a factory man (didn't say what factory} wanted to remove the rear carb mounting plate and examine the fuel nozzle ?
Marc possible to get some good photos of your engine ?

This 3 cyl. Gray was exhibited at Mystic in 2007. The caption indicated it was a high performance racing engine. I don't know enough about Gray to speculate whether it was a redesigned/refitted T or a different design altogether. I just know it was one fine looking Gray.

Rich,I'm pretty sure the pictures from Mystic are the same motor. |

I assume those brass caps were spun? They look slightly different from each other.
What was the purpose of the nut and bolt/stud(?) in the middle of the "GRAY" embossed side covers? They are obviously well secured by four bolts already. |

Thats a real Beauty !
These engines were a true two port / three port design, all of these engs I have seen carbureted the two port inlet, the Gasoline /Kerosene Twin above is the only T I have seen with twin carbs for each cylinder that are on the three port intake ?
1914 Illustration- Hope its readable
