Fresh out of the barn. Bought on a tip from a friend. Told the guy who sold them if any of this stuff was valuable I would bring him back more cash, and I will.
Please message or call to discuss buying/shipping/whatever; this stuff is a little earlier than I'm experienced with and I don't want to make myself look like an ass with inappropriate prices. (XXX) XXX-XXXX, my name is Lemmy.
If something is wrong here, please correct me! Remember, the difference between a mistake and fraud is intent—I'm just another goober trying to offload his junk, I'm not a museum curator. If I can answer a question or take a measurement or you want a different picture, just ask!

- I believe this is '48-'55 per the latest Palmer books
- J-hooks are all in good shape
- Pics: https://imgur.com/a/m0X48O4
- Good VIN, no title. (C suffix... Canada? Never seen this before, but this is both a) older than I normally work with and b) definitely good numbers to my eye.)
- Non-matching bellies, unclear if this motor was ever together and running
- Left side case has some damage from when something came apart, but looks very fixable. (See pics, up near the spigot on the inside of the left case)
- Jugs look OK visually, have not measured anything
- Appear to be original valves
- Rotating assembly has wheels, rods, and slugs
- Pistons are .040 over, but again, I'm not sure if this was just pieces being built into a motor, or if it was ever together and running, so don't take that to mean the jugs are also .040 over
- Three lifters and blocks, one block has a busted ear but the ear is with the block
- Cam cover is present and accounted for, has oil pump and some timer guts
- Carby and intake are there but maybe are not correct for year? M51 Linkert, choke plate and throttle plate both move
- Two heads. Some broken fins on one. No ring damage marks on the insides where they usually get mangled up
- Four cams. Look runnable but not mint? Not sure if these can have fresh lobes installed, but the gear end of things looks pretty good to me. A couple internal gears in the pile along with some rando hardware.

- I believe this to be a fork from a model B or model C
- I believe this to be so because '27 still had no brakes, but the I-beam style fork began in '30. (I think?)
- I am not a historian
- Looks super-nice to my eye
- I don't see any casting marks so I can't give them, but if there is one I am not seeing and I can get it for you, just give me some direction.
