H. E. Boucher, Polly Wog Boat Plan And Outboard, Vintage Steam Engine.
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:92222 |
Directly from the attic where it slept for 70 or 80 years, here is a very scarce engine made by the respected brand H.E. BOUCHER, it will allow to a skilled gentleman to restore a Polly Wog steam engine.The original plan and instructions of the Polly Wog speed boat are also included.
Please, look carefully at the photos : this engine is uncomplete and sold in its "as found" condition. I have not attempted to clean it, I just put a... few drops of oil in the cylinders and the crankshaft : it turns but not freely and I can feel some "compression" (!) because the exhaust ports are clogged by dirt. The crankshaft is slightly bent and the intake steam pipe is twisted.
The original plan is dated from 03/1929 and is in exceptional condition, with a few tears, it's not dried or yellowed by years.
I ship worldwide at exact cost by registered and tracked service, shipping price is $ 17.80 to the EEC, $24.50 to the USA, Australia and Japan.Questions are welcome, just ask... Thanks, Chris.
