Selling my 1911 (sn# V15xxx) International / IHC 1 hp Tom Thumb air cooled hit & miss engine. It\'s a runner (see video). Have a good look: Pics and video give best description but here\'s what I can tell you. It has the desirable factory butter churn / cream separator pulley on it. None of the aircooled fins are broken or repaired. There are some obvious detractions like the JB Weld repair to the carb. There is also a braze repair to the rocker arm bracket and the end of the rocker arm itself looks like it has been built up. Character dent in the gas tank. The paint is obviously showing it\'s 20 year restoration age. The engine runs sweetly but there is a bit of air getting through the valves so she shows weak compression. The piston itself is tight as is most everything on the engine. Don\'t hear much noise from those gears eh ? The teeth and tolerances are fine. She is what she is. Selling as is to avoid disputes but she\'s a good\'un. There\'s a few around but trying to get a guy to sell one is like pulling hen\'s teeth. This one is for sale. SHIPPING: I can hold here until you come and get it. I can meet you in Buffalo, NY ($100 gas money). I will drop it off at a Fastenal store in Buffalo for US delivery ($100 gas money). I can ship to the UK or Australia, for example. Lots of possibilities, lots of different prices that I just don\'t know up front. PAYMENT: cash when you come to pick up, PayPal, even a personal c-heque if it\'s good :o). Thanks for links....sheesh....SO, replace the 3 DOTS with actual dots to view video :o)....)As always, kindly ignore the useless shipping calculator. Shipping is NOT FREE. Thank you....
Engine is for sale, offer to buy !
