[SEL] Bringing home the Famous

[Dave Otto]

Hi Rick

Nice project! The holes in the base are original. The oval on in the
middle is for the air intake pipe from the mixer. The other one would be
for the water pipe if the engine was a screen cooled model with the
pump.

A good friend of mine here has nicely restored 4hp hit & miss famous.
One sweet running engine!

  Howdy all;
Well yesterday Corky and I went down and picked up the 4hp Famous.
Here's a 
photo of Ed the PO and the loading is going fine.  The roller ramps work

great and this monster is supposted to weigh in at 1400 lbs.

And here it is backed into the shed.  Notice the hole on the
base..doesn't 
look original.  And yes the valve tower has been worked on.
