Scantic Valley Antique Engine Club

16 May 2009
This was my first visit to this show which is held at the Four Town Fair Grounds in Somers CT. Rich Hubbard, Russ Steeves and Norm Jones had their display set up and we were happy to see them. The weather was overcast with rain in the forecast but while we were there the rain held off and we had a nice visit.
Video clip note: The WMV clips load much faster but the MPG clips have much greater clarity.
This engine and transmission are from a Crosley automobile
MPG WMV Very nice model engine
This is a portable sickle bar sharpener. It could be taken out to the field and the sickle bar can be sharpened without needing to go back to the barn.
MPG WMV Very colorful engine with governor
Last time I posted a photo of oilers I got an email from someone who wanted to know who the exhibitor was. Of course I had no idea so this time I made sure that I got his name. Frank Carey of Monson MA had the display and wanted $150.00 for the whole box. Drop me a note and I will send you his email address if you are interested.
