I don't know what the engine is either, but I bet it will make a very nice setup once it is all cleaned up.

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked just fine.

I can't contribute anything to the identification of the machine either. But I am already curious about the restoration of the machine.

Hello Dennis - for me it looks like an older Stuart Nr. 8 or 9 or parts from Stuart.
Specially the Flywheel and the Cylinder. I think it can be well rescued and brought back
to live. Nice work for next Winter,  Arnold :D
