Any ideas on what this is? ...... If it were closer I might be interested. Oh well.

Hmm, .... Not sure the link is working. Search this on Ebay "Antique HIT & MISS Marine gas engine. Nice Barn Fresh Piece! 1900s era!!" |

Neither link nor number above works.
Must have been "ended early" by private sale.
Here's a 2 cyl. Dunn in S.Cal. that sold: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dunn-Antique-Inbored-Boat-gas-engine-Hit-and-Miss-Engine -Old-Marine-Engine-Early-/162207089177 |

I drove 2 hours out to Livonia to look at this engine three weeks ago. It has a crank stub for a hand crank like a tractor. There is a heavy duty chain sprocket mounted behind the flywheel. No tag. Was from a sale/collection of old car bodies. Definately not marine application IMO. May have been an an agricultural application when new>> |

Ah, thank you. I thought it looked a bit off. No water cooled exhaust manifold, and as you said not much of a way to put a reaverse gear on it. Still, an interesting engine. |
