WOW is that ever neat............ a survivor. I am assuming that motor is in a GMC or Chevrolet truck chassis. Any more info on the motor or the vehicle that it was in.

Was in a flatbed dually truck, 1910s , at pocket a part in Calgary. Just thought it was neat. The size of head on it is outrageous, pistons probably size of tomato cans

The GMC/Chevrolet truck chassis there, looks more like late 1920's. The Chevrolet inline six never came out until 1929. I am not sure about the GMC inline six.

I was just guessing from patent dates on the carb, there's two 1916 & 1918. I just googled the block number and is coming up as a 1933 Master. I don't think little truck is from '33 or early 30s cause the truck is half made from wood. If I have time today I'll take more pictures of the truck. The leaf springs were nuts, guy had probably twenty leaves in there. I just thought the motor and carb was neat.

Almost want to pay pocket A part engine cost and rebuild it, just to hear it run, grab trans, driveshaft and the axle that is still all together, complete running gear.
