Item History & Price
Presented for your consideration: A GREAT OEM EXAMPLE OF AN IVES 1122 STEAMCHEST AND PILOT ASSEMBLY COMPLETE WITH BRASS PILOT STANCHIONS AND "MADE IN IVES SHOPS" NAMEPLATE; circa 1929 This is one tough Original part to find especially complete without any metal fatigue. The casting has all original brass fittings, nameplate and steel front truck support post. As the cow catcher part of the pilot has almost perfect paint with minimal chips, I suspect that just that... small section of this large heavy casting might have been touch-up at one time but I can't be sure. In any event, this is indeed a scarce original part with is quite often broken or missing on the 1122 loco. There is nothing like the fit of an OEM part. The winning bidder will be most pleased! Please study the 6 enlargeable pictures as they tell a good part of the story. Any questions please message me and I will do my very best to answer promptly. Truck will be posted in a strong double walled box and fully insured.Thanks for looking. Remittance is requested within 2 days of auction’s end. PAY PAL PAYMENTS PREFERRED.
