Sterling Model B
Hi Richard, Here are a few pictures of the Sterling we talked about last week. I'll send a few more without the engine hoist sometime. Does it look similar to yours? You can post them to Old Marine engine if you like, I cant access my account. Take care, Peter Kreissle

Good looking motor Peter! Looks like the small brother to my R1-135 6 cylinder.
Glad to see that more Sterling Engines from that age survive.
Cheers & Happy New Year,

Hi guys,
Do we know anyone that can restore or reproduce the porcelain Name / Model ID tags on these engine? The one for my Sterling R1-135 (3 pics directly above) looks just like these model Bs, missing half of the porcelain!
My 1906 model 14-18 4 cylinder just has a brass tag, pre porcelain for Sterling.
Cheers,

Hi Guys,
I would love to hear from anyone restoring any of these early Sterlings. I would love to see any process pics and find out what documentation has surfaced, parts being used / created etc.
Cheers,
