Flywheel is approx. 10.5 inches diameter. The crankcase, flywheel, water jacket, etc., are all brass/bronze. Unfortunately, there is no tag on it.

That engine or one like it has been wandering around New England shows for the last 25 or more years. I think I saw it the first time in 86 or 87. |

I know nothing about the history of this engine, it belongs to an acquaintance. I'm sure he got it at a very good price or it wouldn't have come home with him. He asked if I knew who made it and I suggested the best chance at identifying it would be to post photos on the OME site which I did for him. If this little engine was polished up, one would need sun glasses to view it. |
