Have torn 2 more down that look just like the pictures since, actually one was worse, and I have another one or two in the boxes still with numerous pieces rattling around inside them. Likewise Don Gienger and Lee Vine each had one that was junk from Mel-Co. Out of 6 we've torn apart to date, we have managed to salvage bits and pieces to make one, and found one complete engine we believe to be salvageable. That one however, has fresh cross hatch in the cylinder indicating it's been torn down and freshened up, so I suspect a cylinder or maybe both are not round on it.
