I recently did a clean out of an estate that had a lot of older stuff in nice shape. It had a number of out buildings on the property and these were in one. Made me think of Austen, as he has an affinity for the old reelers. Not quite his genre, but I thought I'd share a few pics. I've done no research to this point, and if anyone knows the shortcuts, please share.

They are both freed up, with dry tanks and spark. I have no doubt they'll run. Interesting point, both spark plugs have the original engine paint on them. The overall condition of these is pretty impressive. Anyhoo, this one's for you, Mr. Austen :2th:
