Pistons made of wood.

Just did. Leather seals for model ts. that's neat. Thanks for that info

I know. I couldn't believe it

Thanks buddy

@curtrn there are a lot of makes. If you want a cheap engine they are not technically hit miss but they look similar, some of these makes include cushman engines, lb la internationals. You can buy those for around 300 running. Now some other options that are a little more expensive are witte, economy, Hercules. I would advise you hop on Facebook and get connected with hit miss engine collectors group. Also you can buy corn grinders, water pumps, corn shellers, line shafts that you can belt your engines to. I sometimes pump water with my engines. Ill put a video up at some point showing that

@@tylerthon2214 Thank you for the advice. I like that name " Hercules " Thank you for starting my journey.

@@curtrn I also forgot Fairbanks engines. Very common good engines. Best of luck

@@tylerthon2214 Thank you very much.

That's really neat. Do you have any old photographs of those engines?

@tylerthon2214 ya probably at my parents, ps where are you I'm I. Ontario Canada

@@davidmattice3752 I'm in south west kansas. Originally from michigan. It would be cool if you could find those pics and post them. I enjoy seeing those old photos.

Thanks buddy. Appreciate that

It's my " grocery getter"

Thanks for that info buddy.

Safety is overrated

The inhibitor of evolution

In Manitowoc they back in a belly dump semi trailer onto the car deck and it falls into the storage bunkers. Originally when the C&O Railroad built it rail cars were used.

No. Never happen. A national landmark. The offset is the fuel used and exhaust driving around the lake, especially for large trucks.

Has "UP DATED" pollution controls on her. Ashes are "RECYCLED."

how about you educate yourself on the subject before making a post and showing everyone your ignorance, greenie.

Please say you use a bicycle and never a car to go anywhere. I don't mean anything that is electric powered either since that uses fossil fuel to charge it. If you don't then you are a hypocrite.

No

The engines are Skinner UniFlows. The last operating type of these engines in the country.

It was $315 one way before taxes and fees, including fare protection since we were traveling far from home. You don’t have to take your vehicle, you book a ticket separate for yourself and your vehicle. We did it for the experience more than anything. It also avoided the hassle of driving through Chicago and the opportunity to move around while traveling which is a lot nicer than being cooped up on the road!

Yes you can. You do not have to have a vehical to ride the ferry. Yes 380 is alot.

Yes, you can ride as a walk on passenger.

You can do a round trip as just a passenger for about $110. Also realize that Manitowoc to Luddington is about the middle of Lake Michigan. It is a 7 hour drive not including Chicago traffic if you go around the bottom and an 8 hour 30 minute drive if you go across the top of the lake between these two cities. That is a lot of driving that is being eliminated plus you get to rest as well. So it may well be worth the cost for some people.

You can go round trip as just a passenger. Get a Stateroom. There is a special fare.

I did ha ha. Thank you for that info

Yea alot of them. I guess a factory in India still makes the lister engine and are still in use today.
