$351.55
A rare survivor of the post-WWII modeling boom, this 1945 May Rocket Victor .46 spark ignition engine is a high-priority find for vintage engine collectors. Produced by Corporate Products in Detroit (and designed by Ashton May), this engine is far less common than its contemporaries. It features the original amber-tinted "Rocket" fuel tank and the period-correct Champion V spark plug. The casting is crisp with no visible hairline cracks or damage to the mounting lugs. The engine turns over smoothly with excellent compression. Whether you are a "Sparky" enthusiast or looking for a museum-grade display piece, this May Rocket is a standout addition to any collection.
