Dad just dragged home these three along with a burnt up Gray Model 'O'. The Adams was also through a fire, but should be restorable. The Adams, Wright and Barker all have raised letters.
 
 
For those of you restoring the other Barker, we tried to get some measurements through the ignitor hole:
Bore - 4.75"
Stroke - 5"
Any idea what the '18' would be stamped on the upper and lower crankcase castings?

Dragged home some pretty cool engines !
I can't quite read the tag and raised lettering on the "Adams" possible to ship it down here to Florida so I can get a better look ?
I'm guessing that the 18 numbers on the "Barker" are to help keep all pieces of each engine together during assembly ?

Richard,
I happened to find a close-up photo of the Adams lettering...so I guess we won't have to crate it up just yet.

Is that an 18, 13 or 19 cast on the flywheel of the Barker? |
