SOLD - 1899 Aermotor for parts

[PaulV]

Anyone need an 1899 Aermotor for parts? This thing is in rough shape with several weld repairs. Snout is broken. There are a few good parts. Have the tail, also rough, a couple of sails, sail clips, sail bands, V spokes, mast pipe, pullout. Everything in the pics. Make an offer or trade for windmill parts. This is in the way and don't want to scrap. Can bring to the Trade Fair in MN.

Awesome! I have restored much worse than that.

I am impressed with that 100 year old windmill , as Windy stated I have worked on worse . That one is a great start for an open gear model !

I do like the look of those open gear aerators..

I'm pretty sure the tailvane is a model 98 the bottom brace is round pipe they switched to angle in 99.

The mill has a new owner.

It is an 1899. Unmistakable 402 mainframe and part 441. Bone is 1899 but has been repaired with pipe. Aermotor pipe bone frames never had a pipe coupler in them...

Yep Ron the mill is a 99 but the tailbone is a 98 with a pipe brace that was repaired. I have both tailbones 98 and 99 do you?
