Neat haul Doug, well done!

I love that little upright Maytag, it´s a ½hp right?
I believe you are correct. There is a bigger upright as well, but i am pretty sure this one is 1/2 hp.

It's the second day of Coolspring!  I found several new items, including an early Maytag vertical utility hit and miss engine.  Also a suitable buzz box from another vendor, and a rather interesting lot of model steam engine fittings at a very reasonable price.  I also bought Gil's small vertical Sipps steam engine, which needs a proper valve cover made, but otherwise it is a very good example.  Lastly, but not pictured, a Redwing hit and miss engine casting kit.  [attachimg=1][attachimg=2][attachimg=3]
