Well Jeff, it's obvious you've saved a really rare and desirable engine. It's amazing to think this early engine was almost lost. It probably happens more then we care to think, but luckily you came by at the right time. As mentioned, it's definitely worth trying to restore into a running engine. If you plan to tackle the project, there are plenty of resources out there to help you get going.
If you decide to sell it, I'd appreciate it if you would give me consideration. I am a 3rd generation collector of antique engines, my website is wahlengines.com. I enjoy tackling tough engine projects like this and bringing them back to life. I post threads of all my restorations for others to follow and enjoy. Some of my recent projects are: 10 HP White & Middleton: https://www.smokstak.com/forum/showthread.php?t=143238 12 HP Root & Vandervoort: https://www.smokstak.com/forum/showthread.php?t=102408
I'd be willing to pay in cash more than what others have offered. And I also think I was first in line to offer to purchase this engine. Call me anytime at: 703-505-7191 if you would like to discuss. If not, I completely understand and best of luck! Thanks for sharing your find! Jeff Wahl

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
