Photo 9 HP Alamo Blue Line

This is a picture I though you Gentlemen would injoy. This Engine was found in Kodiak Alaska, It was used to power a buzz type saw, When I recieved it, it was solid rust, We disassembled it with a wrench, It just took a hammer and chizel. Had to make all steel parts, We really enjoyed restoring this one, It runs 80 rpms. It hit and then coasts 34 times before it hits again.
Ray.

A fantastic engine Ray! I sure enjoyed watching it run! It sure was good seeing you and your family at Brooks. I won't be at Toledo this year but My Dad and brother will be so keep an eye on them!

I see the registry- would this include Empire engines also? I just "aquired" a 5 HP and would love to share the serial number.
