    OK -------------- This next engine was raced by a very popular racer/engine builder/racing historian. It won a National and was restored by its owner to the condition you see here.

    Can you tell us the make/size engine this is and maybe who the owner may be?

    Good Luck!

    It's beautiful!

    I'm not sure if it's an A or B, but I know one thing for sure, I helped build it and it wasn't this pretty when it left Quincy.

    Not sure who it belongs to, but I'm guessing his initials might be J.S.

    If so, I'd say it's a "B"

    If I'm wrong, I apologize to whomever did such a beautiful restoration!!!

    Default Very Good

    Gene - Your on the spot. It's a "B" and it does belong to J.S..

    Know - Can anyone tell us who Gene is talking about? For a bonus tell us what Nationals it won and were?

    Just a hint. This J.S. is not Jim Schoch although he did win a FEW championships with a motor like this!

    hi all,

    i beleive it is john schbert's b looper. it's a beauty! john had several of these and i am lucky enough to have one of them i am restoring. john had a unique spray shield that you can see on the quincy website under collections. that's the shield i have on his engine i have.

    as for the national.... i'd say '68 or '69.

    Default Engine #14 Answer

    Well ----------- You guys are correct!

    It is the 1968 DePue Nationals "B" class winning engine of John Schuberts.
    John did a great job restoring + a little shine added to his quincy "B".

    OK ----------------- This next engine is old school. But this particular model was a very rare one. Producted for only one year as a factory racing engine it was short lived due to the great depession and factory buget cuts.

    Can you tell us what make,year and model engine this factory racer is?

    Good Luck!
