Here is my son enjoying running around the Cuttyhunk Island harbor with the small O&R outboard I had. It used to push my 3 kids and and 2 of us easily everywhere.

I had to do that many years ago to my outboard motor. Good fix.

I just got this today. It may be late. I lost power for 3 days here and just getting caught up on the internet. Some are not labeled correctly. Many desirable in here. https://www.auctionzip.com/auction-catalog/Model-Airplane-and-Engine-Auction_KXA6XG2UPG Collectable engines on Auction Zip Any of you near Greenville, OH may be interested in this auction.

Looks nice. I like the blue. I still have mine here. .May part with it. Bob

To anyone interested in my huge lot of parts. The material is still available to anyone that would care to buy it. Make an offer and you can haul it all away. You can pack it up and ship it to where you want to.Otherwise it can lay there till I am gone and off to the dumpster.

I found this picture of a Orline bicycle motor. The owner said it ran up to 20mph. I would love to have that when I was younger.

I also have an OK Herkimer 60 ignition. I have a lot of motors from the early 50's into the 60's. Maybe 150 of them. I would thin them out except it is the same situation of selling and shipping which is a pain as you have seen me say here. I always liked the O&R utility motor. If there was an adaptive electronic ignition adapted to it I think it would have been an interesting motor for today's old timer style RC model aircraft. It would be lighter without the flywheel. It would be also quite a conversation piece. Bob

I have a good O&R 60 and a not to good O&R 23. The 23 was a very good motor. They made a 23 redhead that was pretty powerful. Bob

I know true collectors of old models of cars, boats, trains, and planes any even antique toys value articles more if it has the original packaging in good shape. Some people in the model plane and toys will just buy an empty box. O&R goes way back to WWII with their famous ignition aircraft motors. The cylinders on the compact is a blown up in size image of the old ignition motors. I still have a couple of those. They show up on eBay at times. Bob

I believe all the small items would fit in a USPS box. Maybe the boxed items like new tanks and housing parts would take some space. Bob

In my case I have so many things around that I need to move on to a place where someone would appreciate it. I just hate to see it dumped and lost forever. I just do not have a shipping motivation. Bob

We have trucking companies around. I have heard other people talk about shipping by truck and heard extremely high prices. Years ago I shipped 3 big boxes of magazines that were 2 piles side by side per box. It was as high as my hand truck handle. It went by FedEx to New Jersey. It was $75 shipping about 20 years ago. It could be double that now for all I know. Problem is these would not be shipped in cardboard boxes. I think it would be wood boxes for these. Also I never weighed all these items either. Some would have to have there cutting blades removed like chainsaws and hedge trimmers. PITA for me with a lot of handling. Bob

Clint Thanks for the interest. I hope you would work something out. I am open to offers. I just do not want to ship piecemeal as it is a nuisance and I just do not feel like being a salesman packaging and mailing stuff all over the place. Someone comes up with a fair offer I will be happy to let it go. Thank You Bob

Hello David, That is some nice condition motor logo and instructions. It is nice to know that should anyone needs a copy to make a decal these will help quite a load to make new laser printed decals. My collection of parts here in the My Old Motor have not been of much interest. It is to bad as someday if no one offers to buy them and pick them up they all will most likely end up in the scrap yard. Thanks Bob

Yes, I hope someone comes along with a decent offer for my parts. Just to much to ship out with the consideration of weight also. The decal on mine is like the post you just put up before this one. Just plan old Aquabug on an angle. It would not take much to have this one running again. I just have to many things hanging around here. My kids have no interest in any of it either.
