    If you haven't already learned, your car is an M19B. They were produced from 1923 until 1932. The engine is a PHA. A friend and I each have one that we're restoring but they're pretty rare. Counting yours, I know of five of them out there. Any history on yours? Do you know where it came from?

      Thanks for that information. I don't know a whole lot about this speeder. I have rebuild my share of hit and miss motors as well as other old stuff. I'm learning with the help of guys like you. I may be able to get some history on this machine when I get a chance to talk with the guy that had it in a storage container. A friend dropped this off for me.

      @@rickybailey7123 the brass Acorn carbs are rarer than hens teeth but a modern C-5 carb will fit.

      I'm not sure where you would find a carb for it. This one was missing some carb part but I was able to make the parts I needed.
