I am sure that the man I bought this from 2 years ago is glad I got it out of his shop today. No reason to be in a hurry I guess.
Several of the valves are stuck, the engine is tight but not stuck and yes I was very careful not to get in a hurry and brake a rocker arm...
I removed the carb to prevent damage when moving.

I hope you keep the patina, it's only original once.
Thanks for sharing!

That’s fantastic! Does it still have the Aurora tag on the head? Those are great engines. I spent 11/2 years making one running 45 out of three. Holler if you have questions.

Thank you,
I have no intention to paint the engine. I am very happy to have a rusty oily engine as it is one less this to polish.
No the tag is long gone, If possible I would like to see if I could get a tag remade. I see no holes on any of the heads that would indicate that there was a tag. I figured that it was on the combine... IDK?
I need to get the 75 Holt done before I can tear to far into this.

oh is there a provision here to IM members? if so a quick tutorial please. Thank you
