My dad had one of these. It wouldn't start unless the spark was advanced a bit, which made it kick back on the crank. I know. Dangerous if your thumb got caught on the wrong side of the handle..
Yes, but there have been many opposed twin engines over the years, it's a perfect engine layout because of the perfect engine balance - no primary or secondary vibrations, everything balances out. Don't forget Flat Fours and Flat Sixes either - VW, Porsche, Subaru, Citroen, Honda Gold Wing - lots more. Also Aircraft engines - Lycoming was famous for their flat twins, and Continental for their Flat Fours and Flat Sixes.
This thing is living...! It´s breathing,moving,farting ...Not like new computers on wheels..! I love it..!

What’s an Upposing twin? You’ve never been an engineer! 😅
Its a Boxer engine, like many of the BMW motorcycles.

if Citroen made a washing machine it would look like this. Clean enough to eat off of.

The Magneto is the Same as was used in telephones of the Era...
It looks similar, but totally different inside.
I'm opposed to your spelling of opposed.
Neat ,I bet thst mag will bite, do the gas lights work
I think you might find that they're Acetylene lights. No LPG in those days!
sounds a bit like my bradford van did
We had a braddie too. I think their engine dated from this period also ..
Of course, same engine layout. I remember the Bradford fondly, we had a few of them running around here when I was young.
