[SEL] Fwd: Whippet engin and transmission - OT

[Elden DuRand]

Marie:

Believe it or not, I once owned a '28 Whippet!  It had the four cylinder engine, so similar to the later "coal scuttle" Willys car engine that a lot of parts would interchange.

Is the engine a four or six cylinder?

Maybe one of these outfits could help:

Antique Automobile Club of America

Veteran Motor Car Club of America
http://www.vmcca.org/

Willys Overland Knight Registry

I hope this helps!

Take care - Elden
