mikewest Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Has a lot of similarities to the 1902 Crest. Neat piece. This is my dad when he was 14 in my grandfathers car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 I have owned a Crest motor. It is VERY close to a Crest motor. Crankcase breaks in half the same way. However CREST is embossed into Crest motors. Timer and cam probably similar to Orient,Crest,De Dion Bouton motors. Austin Parkinson in the UK makes post parts for DDB engines including the timers.
