Stickney to be scrapped

[Lonnie Grissom]

Some one just posted on antique tractors stationary engine forum that he has a friend that is going to beat up 20 hp engine for scrap. Maybe some one can cheat the scrap pile and get the engine. Didnt say where the engine is located but the man thinks it will probably bring $500.

Do you know how rare those are? Could you please post a link to the information

Thanks Jordan

I have a friend that cleans old yards sites for people, for the scrap iron. He showed me an engine he is going to take the recking hammer to next week. I told him I don't know alot about this stuff, but it might be worth more if he advertises it as an antique. It says on it 20 HP, and on the back it is called a stickney engine. He may have already dragged it out of the building and wrecked it, but if theres interest and I get back to him in time let me know. It weighs tons and tons though. He figures he'll get $500 in scrap cast, so he'd at least need this much I guess. Thanks

I just hunted the internet, found and quoted the ad referred to by Lonnie Grissom who started this thread.
I agree...................INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW

Has anyone heard ANYTHING on this?

I've e-mailed the bloke several times, most recently 3 weeks ago, to see what ever became of the engine. Never got a reply to any of my messages. Sure hope someone got themselves a nice engine instead of China getting a few thousand pound more of scrap iron.
