This is a NOVO 6 hp TYPE "S" engine.

Serial Number 5559.

We found this cruising back roads one day. The owner
has a junk store and had this sitting out front with some tractors
For Sale. It took a couple days of stopping by to catch him
there. When we did catch him there we worked out a deal.
I didn't care much for the contraption it was on so we
took the torches to it and removed the engine.


You can see, in the picture above, how he had it belted up to run.
There was a transmission out of a Fiat in the back of this thing.


The picture below shows everything stripped off of the frame.
We wanted to make it a little bit lighter for rolling it into the
garage. I think we took off 25 pound of just nuts and bolts!


Here the engine is supported by the blocks. There is clearance
between the blocks and the frame and the engine. I took the
torches and cut off the front end and then rolled the frame
out from under the engine. The engine was sitting on the cement blocks,
shown below, waiting to be put on the trailer.


The picture above shows my Dad on the far right and me just above the
right flywheel. In these pictures we're loading it onto our 16 foot
tandem axle trailer. The lift was rented.


 

Below are pictures of the tag, carb, and crankcase breather.

 

Below shows the Novo 6hp belted to a big blower.
