AlbertS Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 I am working on an stand-alone salt spreader that slides into the back of a 10-ton dump body. Am looking for suggestions on an air-cooled engine I could use, 1/24 or 1/25, if anyone has any ideas. Thx in advance for your input.

dwc43 Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 1/64 1/43 Resin Figure Lawn Mower Man Life Scene Figures GK Model 3D Miniature Model Doll Unpainted DIY Toy (aliexpress.us) It's a guy pushing a mower. You could use the motor off the lawnmower. 3 inches under has his site and an ebay site. He did have a motor and pump made for transferring water for fire trucks. That had a pull rope motor on it. He had a chop saw that has more like an oversized chain saw motor on it. He also had a Jaws of Life tool and that requires a pull rope motor to run a hydraulic pump. It would take a while to search his sites. He has tons of stuff. Push Mower — VCG Resins by Reese Another push mower but it's sold out. Might contact him anyways. Someone else on ebay and he has a site too. Can't remember his name, but he had a push mower and a weed eater that he sells. Might do a search and see if any of those small engines will work for ya. Hope that helps point you in the right direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwc43 Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 Leaf Blower — VCG Resins by Reese Check this one out. He has it in stock. Just leave the hose off of it and put a drive shaft or chain drive to your spreader. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarheelRick Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 The motor from the MPC Indy Lotus Turbine Car push tractor should work, or maybe the go-cart engine in the AMT 60 Chevrolet truck kit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good ones. I forgot about those. And they got that the minibike in one of the MPC Dodge truck kits too.

dwc43 Posted June 24, 2024 Share Posted June 24, 2024 Ice Man Collectibles is the one that I forgot the name to in the first post. He has the cheap lawn mower with engine and the weedeater with engine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
