George Albright Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Please share this with your Kissel collector friends. Great start to a rare and valuable speedster project. Super rare 1909,1910,1912,1913 Kissel parts removed from the Harrah's collection in the 1970s. Stored inside since then. Many items still have Kissel written on them,with Harrah's famous yellow paint, which they used to ID most of their spare parts. According to Stu Laidlaw, HCCA and AACA brass car expert,since the 2 jugs have a 4 1/2 inch bore, the heads are off of a 40 HP FOUR cylinder model. Kissel built 30,40,50,and 60 HP engines in the 1909-13 period. Kissels are quite rare as are their parts, as there was a low of 400 to a high of around 900 cars made each year during the 1909-13 period. Parts are stored in Redding California, north of Sacramento. You must arrange pickup. Sorry no shipping assistance.I have no idea what year or years,and what sizes of engines and cars these parts can be used on as to Kissel models. However I,and Stu Laidlaw are 90% sure these are from the 1909-13 period. However you are the final judge,and you are buying the items as is where is. You will be getting the following: both heads,with 4 1/2 inch bore.(see photos),crankcase and both end covers.No crank shaft. No rods,no pistons.Oil pan and what appears to be a camshaft. 4 fenders,2 front,2 rear.Front axle with both spindles possibly in the several boxes of small parts that you get.(see photos) Rear axle housing,but no guts,ring and pinion or axle shafts. Sliding gear transmission.Fan. Again,with much of this stuff we are selling it as Kissel due to Herrahs writing Kissel on the part with yellow paint. I am not an expert in Kissel stuff,so I suggest you do not buy unless a Kissel expert looks at these items first.Several additional photos by email. Price is $4,800 for everything,and must be paid at time of purchase. Parts can stay there around 90 days. Good Luck. George Albright,Ocala,Fla. cell 352 843 1624 weekdays 10-4 EST best.

Bore of the heads: 4 1/2 inches. If interested I have 3 emails of a total of 34 photos of the parts. Email me at gnalbright@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 We now know the motor is a 1913 40 HP model and will probably be the same as a 1914 model. Will consider fair offers. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
