    Default Anyone Else Collect Old Engines

    Thought I would start a thread to see if anyone else here has any old flywheel engines that they collect.

    Here is my 1914 Empire Cream Separator Co. of Canada 1.5 hp hit and miss engine. From the registry it looks like this is 1 of 30 know Canadian made Empire engines.

    If there were any around here to collect I would, but alas, I just have to build models of them. This is a hit and miss version:

    - B21

    Once you see the bandwagon, it's too late.

    Take a ride down to the the Florida Fly-wheelers antique farm show. I am sure you could find one for sale down there.

    Hiya

    Nice red engine Mike R, and 1914 is really old, nice. I don't collect such engines but I have a 1963 Lister CS 6-1 engine on my farm. I bought a book to identify it and joined the Lister Engine Forum to learn more about it.
    There is a pic here at my post: Lister CS 6-1 (1963) on Lister Engine Forum

    cya
