The 2 cylinder Brush

I know that a lot has been written about the two cylinder Brush and its possible production, but does anyone actually own an original model? Original from the factory with documentation.

If so, would you share a photo of your auto and engine, with a brief history. Just curious in frigid Minnesnowta. Thanks

If the 2 cylinder was produced there must not have been many. All I have ever seen mentioned on it is the Brush ad announcing it, and many years ago saw one period photo of the 2 cylinder displayed at a period car show. Brush did produce quite a number of industrial engines and perhaps like in the case of Bob Lamond's the 2 cylinder was relegated to industrial use.

Connecting rods at the crank pin of the Brush flat-twin Diesel engine on display at the Snibston Discovery Museum

Some flat-twin engines, including the Brush Diesel engine, have only one crank throw, with the crank pin shared by both connecting rods
