I inherited a single cylinder, water-cooled, marine engine manufactured by the Beith Motor Company, Provdence, RI. Can anyone tell anything about this engine and what it may be worth? I do recall my dad running the engine and I am fairly certain it will run. It certainly has compression. Thanks for your help. |

sorry we can't talk about value on this list, but I sure would like to see some pictures of it

Roger: I do have pictures of the Beith motor but my file sizes are too large to meet the requirements of this site. If you would like to send me your email address, I would be happy to send them to you. My email address is: [email protected]. |
