“some wear overall with some soiling/rust patching to the top dome/threading seems damaged in the mouth of the bronze fitting - when the valve is pushed air is pushed out the top pipe - otherwise not tested/sold as rebuildable item.”
Country/Region of Manufacture:United States

     

 vintage item from the estate of a Steam Engine builder (including a small steam engine powered car!) -- I believe this is some sort of steam operated Pressure Valve built with a McDonald bronze valve attached to a shaft that operates another valve that pumps air out the top pipe -- 1 1/4 in. id bronze piping-entire unit measures 10 in. tall by about 6 in. across --

-- moderate wear overall with some grease and soiling/denting to the copper piping - shaft turns with a nice 'pop' - otherwise not tested/sold as rebuildable item --

-- we are generally always listing several vintage Automobile/Truck parts --
 
Free Local pick-up is an option. Out-of-country buyers are welcome, but overseas shipping is more.

Cadillac CTS-V Coupe – the Video

Wed, 13 Jan 2010

GM has released a video featuring the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe Much of the Detroit Motor Show has been low key. The headline stuff has been mainly about ‘Eco’ cars and although there has been a bit of domestic ‘Muscle’ it’s been a bit thin on the ground. Yes, we had the Mustang GT and even the Buick Regal GS but in terms of real clout probably the most impressive has been the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe.
