Hi, Folks.
I'm posting this captured sketch for Tom Madden. It is of the engine that Tom Madden is seeking for his Peoria Holt 60 crawler. Tom tells me this engine has the 'El' head, similar to the engine in the Holt 120 but with 4 cylinders instead of 6. Manufacture date is thought to be around late 1912 - early 1913.
If you know of or happen to find one of these engines, it would be much appreciated if you would contact Tom via this Bulletin Board or with a private message.
Thanks in anticipation.
You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

Thanks Deas.
I have a very early Peoria Holt 60 Chassis that came from the area of Canada just N of the Niagra Falls area. The engine and rad were removed after WW I and used as a power unit. The best info. we have is that the engine and rad were then junked out. I BELIEVE this is the engine that I need for the Holt. There is one other Peoria Holt 60 that I believe resides in Indiana that is a bit later than mine and has a more conventional Holt 60 engine that has distinct heads and jugs as opposed to the Ell head configuration.
Any help in locating this engine is appreciated. I have Holt and Aurora engines to trade or would buy outright. I would be happy to pay a finders fee to anyone who leads me to the engine that I acquire.
Thanks. Tom Madden
