Antique ignition collection

       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Here are some photos of just my antique ignition engines. Not that many really but I'm trying to buy just 100% complete engines, no missing parts.
There are some real good ones and there's quite a few that have never been run....I like those!

Re: Antique ignition collection
Thanks very much guy's, it's been fun gathering these up.

Some of these old engines are just shy of amazing considering the technology at the time they were made.

Nice stash! I think you need an Atom .09 in there to round it out.

Re: Antique ignition collection
Well, I wasn't thinking of mine exactly.. that one would cost only the price of a crowbar to pry it from my cold dead hands. I only have a couple of ignition engines, and the Atom has nostalgic value for me. The other is a Phantom P-30. Not sure but I thought I saw a Phantom in there, but maybe it was something similar.

Re: Antique ignition collection
Separate pile Merv, and the glow as well. These are just the ignition I have up till now.
Still a lifetime of collecting to do.
