Received your email and now see your post here. I would suggest Doug Kay in Detroit area for the work you need done.

Repeat after me: "I own a GOLD mine!"

PS: Had one just like it 50 years ago and let it get away. They were a dime a dozen back then.

Doug Kay has restored two 40-H's for me and also a KF-9. Really a very nice find and could be a great restoration. You can find the engine details on the 40-H thread and a lot more.

Ron Thomas, the "Foot Doctor" knows more about them than anyone else ever will

Jeff,I was 11 at the time and my Dad would not let me run the "BIG MOTORS". He said I was to small !!! LOL . Also I did not make enough with my Detroit FREE PRESS paper route.

Alan could you take a look at a40H and 20H lower and give me a idea if thay can be brought back to life? Not going to hole you to it. Just need to get a idea of the cost?+- I have not call Dave yet. Just did not want to send them and wast his time.
Thanks for the help!

Looking at both I am sure Doug Kay can repair them. All the parts that you will need are available so I am sure that they can be made first class. If you need Doug's contact info send me a PM.
