Famous Vertical 3 hp

Acquired Feb 2020 for a box of beer. It was a garden ornament and the owner was keen for it to be moved on. Relatively complete with Water pump, fuel pump and carb.

Missing the ignitor.

May 2020 during Covid lockdown it has been taken apart and the piston soaking for an extraction at some stage.

Crack in the water jacket which looks very repairable.

Long term project.

Vertical Famous 3hp as found as garden ornament.

I started collecting vintage machinery in the late 1990's. It took a while to refine what I collected. Now it is anything International Harvester. No I dont have a farm, I live in suburbia in Nelson, New Zealand.
