I think those are on the list of forbidden substances due to the radioactive bearing material. Send it to me quietly and I will properly dispose of it and not tell the Feds where it came from. Wouldn't want you to get into trouble!

In all seriousness, I think there are collectors who would be interested in this engine!

Thanks for the info... Hope a collector reads the message.....Bob.....

How about posting some photos and share that piece of history.

Thanks Brian...
I will try to get some photos......

In case you are interested there is a good article on Reginald Denny (30's and 40's movie star and model enthusiast) who was the man behind the Dennymite engine. It's in the September issue of Model Aviation, the AMA Magazine ............RJ

Thanks Terry and RJ.. The web sites were a big help. It looks like I have the 1949 model...
