22474 engine number - Year 1946 Type BGC Original condition Coupled to a 20 kva alternator no 5260 Springwood 22493 Engine number - year 1946 Type BGC All Original - runs. It is unrestored, but still runs well and we use it whenever we need larger volumes of compressed air. The compressor is a C.P. 3 cylinder of unknown cfm, but it is certainly substantial. The makers plate has the familiar D^D marking so I assume it spent some time with the Army - located in NSW Photos of this engine are here photo A photo B photo C 22692 Engine number - year 1946 Type YB 23331 Engine number - year 1946 Type YB on cast iron base Original not running 23377 Engine number - year 1946 Type YB Unrestored Ian 23754 Engine number - year 1946 Type YB Qld 24480 Engine number - year 1946 Type YB Restored Mackay Mt Isa 24665 Engine number - year 1946 Type AXC Resto started Cairns 24730 Engine number - year 1947 Type AXC Restored Seen at National Rally at Biloela 2007 24878 Engine number - year 1947 Type AXC NSW 25734 Engine number - year 1947 Type J Original, Seen at National Rally at Biloela 2007 26002 Engine number - year 1947 Type YB Restored NSW 26130 Engine number - year 1947 Type YB Restored Ken Mackay 26142 Serial Number - year 1947.

Pulled the side cover off and found a broken connecting rod, so it looks like the engine has failed and it's probably been discarded onsite or it's been through a flood. Picked this up on ebay in 2006 from Griffith. The guy had bought it to restore with his kids but decided not to and sell instead. Sold this and engine 31071 together with a centrifugal irrigation pump. Looks like this engine and the pump were bought at an auction as a single lot, not sure about 31071.
