Barn find Montgomery Wards stationary gasoline engine

[Rustyoldjunk]

This is a Montgomery Wards gasoline stationary engine.
It's a Wisconsin. Pretty sure is a AB.
It was sitting on the floor in a barn that they were selling everything out of.
It has sat dormant a long time it looks like.
The engine is free but I turned it just a hair to see. I want to put some oil down the cylinder before spinning it over.
I got it home and set it inside with the other engines.

Congratulations! That's a great find!! I love the round fuel tanks on these old engines. Have you had time to investigate it's age yet?

Looks like the ol' girl was made for a flat belt drive.
