I just wanted to thank those whom were thinking about purchasing this engine for NOT buying it...😉 , you left the door open for me to acquire a very nice engine that with a bit of minor work now runs like a sewing machine. I couldn't be happier with it . Tom packaged it extremely well & although it is fairly delicate, it arrived safely & damage free, thanks again Tom 😊👍Glad you like the engine, Bruce. Good to know it went to a good home!

You have it all wrong .
It is me who needs to thank you for buying it thus removing temptation for me .

Someone PLEASE buy this before I send Tom a pm!
This would look great in your collection Nick ;D
Not gonna argue with you there, but our van just hit 250K miles and my fingers are crossed that it'll make it through our summer vacation... don't think I should be making any big purchases right now...

The boiler(with jacket) is 4 1/4” diameter by 8” long. Bore x stroke is 3/4” x 1 1/4”. Flywheel diameter is 5”.
The detail on this engine pretty fine. You’ll need some watchmakers tools to tinker with it.
Some minor imperfections: 1. one oil cup is a replacement, every thing else is original. 2. The slot on the slotted set screw that secures the PTO pulley is buggered up. 3. The tiny try-cocks next to the sight glass don’t drain anything. Are they dummies? If anyone knows, please let me know.
Weedensteam reports one of these engines selling for $685 in 2009, therefore, I will boldly ask $500 or best offer for this one. If there’s no interest, I’ll list on eBay and see what happens. Cheers! https://youtu.be/jYB4vsBSaJE
