Quartzsite Arizona USA 2002

	Something to make George Best drool (more) - a 3 hp Stickney
	A bit more Stickney
	The only marking on this one was Bull Dog - aparently several manufacturers made these little beasts.
	Bull Dog
	I had seen drawings of these, but never one in person. This is the Caloric Hot Air Engine - a competitor to the Rider Ericcson. If you are not familiar with this sort of machine they are an external combustion engine in that the heat directly acts upon the engine to produce power (movement) rather than relying on the combustion process itself.
	Challenge
	Cushman - wonder if the octopus straps are original equipment?
	A De-Laval engine and prospectors rock crusher. Interesting little display.
	Alamo (thanks to Ted Brookover for the ID)
	IHC Mogul Jnr (thanks to Ted Brookover for the ID)
	Headless Witte from Kansas City (home of Ted Brookover!)
	Economy
	Rob & Kelley Skinner's hacksaw
	A Hicks marine engine mounted onto a truck chassis. This engine had a great deal of modern features. Remember when the car companies came out with this amazing revolution (so they said) - the over head valves, well this machine had them in 1927 when it was built. So much for truth in modern advertising. The engine is four cylinder overhead valve and develops 27 horse power at 500 rpm. The truck chassis was a white fire truck once in its life.
	One of Fred's Maytag washers - this one appears to have done a little hard time in the desert.
	Model Associated - thanks to Don Siefker for the ID
	Model of a Domestic - thanks to Rob Skinner for the ID
	Model Vaughn - thanks to Don Siefker for the ID
	The "great" immigration from the eastern to western states in the great depresion was in jalopies like these. Despite their looks, these cars run well and would occasionally drive around the event to the amazement of the onlookers.
	Model Hit & Miss, flyball governed, V-twin. This engine was a lot of fun to watch - it was completely impossible to predict if it would fire one one, or both cylinders when it slowed down enough to fire.
	Monitor and Monitor Pump Jack
	Oil Field engine - another Headless Witte
	Pump Jack
	What this place is famous for - Quartzsite - ironically most of the quartzsite being sold in town and at the show was from China, India, Mexico and South America - tons of it all around them and they import more!
	Rob & Kelley's Hot Air Engine
	Rolls Royce radial - it runs! This is an Ingersoll Rand air compressor with three power cylinders and three compressor cylinders - thanks Rob Skinner for the ID.
	Another Stickney, this one even brighter blue than the other one. This was was also for sale - scary price tag - wayyyy to many zeroes for my liking.
	"The Whizzer" motor bike. This one was kinda modern, but it does have an engine.
	Tom Thumb air cooled.
	Another washing machine, this one a bit older than Fred's creation featured earlier - imagine going at it with this model.
	A well boring outfit.
