A 1920 Fairbanks Morse model 'ZA', 3hp, TVO, throttle governed.

It's in great running order. Missing it's starting handle but starts easily on the flywheels.

I've got to tidy up the trolley and change the engine colour, it's too light green for my taste and I dont like the chimney style exhaust, I'm going to put that back to factory.

Nice! What was the original exhaust like, a sort of mushroom shape?

Looks nice, you're right, the exhaust does look odd.

You can just make it out on top of the chimney, it's shape seems correct when looking at all the Fairbanks Z's on Google images I just don't know if it's original to the engine or a later reproduction.
