Spent time in the attached garage today hanging some stuff. The old motors run very well. Picked up the signs at Columbus gas.

ohio the old motors are cool.and the signs!looks like you are also a fisherman.mick

Like how you have the engines displayed. Looks good

What type of motors are they? Hit and miss or what just wondering> Thanks Cash

The B & S came off a very old washing machine, not sure about the Lausen.
Not hit miss, wish they were. Looking to get a hit miss one of these days and hook it up to a home made ice cream crank.

I have had several hit and miss engines that were removed from old maytag washers wish I still had them but had to sell so that I could buy something else. I guess that is the curse of this hobby unless you are the lucky few. I enjoy the ownership for a little while but have to give it up to see another day but the memories last forever in my mind. Thanks Cash
