Perhaps you should call the phone number. The owner may not text or know how to text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne sheldon Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I do not know the car, or the seller myself, so have no advice to give. However, the seller has it listed for sale on the model T forum, and is a semi-regular poster over there. https://mtfca.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=40490 The price seems very reasonable. However? I am not sure Overland had a removeable head in 1915? I think maybe some models did? But the couple of them I knew owners of did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozz71 Posted December 29, 2023 Author Share Posted December 29, 2023 (edited) The head on the Continental motor sure looks very similar to a Model T removable head. Yes, I am a semi-regular guy and the car is still for sale. Edited December 29, 2023 by fozz71 (see edit history) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AzBob Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 What is the displacement of the 1915 Overland 4 cyl. engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozz71 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 Hmmmm, that's a toughie. I found 153.4 cubic inches, producing 30hp. Maybe that helps you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzBob Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) Might help if you could provide the model number of the car. To my eyes, the engine looks bigger than 153.4 cu. inches. Edited January 17 by AzBob (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozz71 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 Bob, I don't exactly know the displacement so I tried to quickly research it. The model number is an 83B model Overland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzBob Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Found this data sheet online. Model 83B Bore and Stroke 4.125" X 4.5" doing the math equals 240.5 cubic inches. A rather large engine for a 4 cylinder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozz71 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 Very cool and great find! The motor has very good power and runs smoothly, As one used to a Model T, this is a very peppy power plant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
