1940 Dennis 6

Ready for loading for trip to Indianapolis June 6. Made it safely even though we had to drive through a massive thunderstorm. Due to the continuous rain, have not had opportunity to take more photographs.

Rodger, I always like how you can angle the headlights. Your machine seems to be looking towards the heavens to see if more rain is coming.

Barry The light were angled this way when I got it. It was unloaded at the Wayne Townwhip Fire Department during the storm Saturday morning. I have since removed the headlights and spotlight for safekeeping. A number of engine parts are in the lockers. The intake manifold is been broken, but an Indianapolis firefighter, just back from a tour of duty in Iraq, says he can weld it. Will take more photos tomorrow (Wednesday). All be safe.

Great picture Rodger, Did you get all the information on the Meadows 6EXA engine you were looking for ?

Added by John Walker on 11 June 2008.
Rodger, Do you still have enough umf to crank it over.

Added by Bob Woods on 08 August 2008.
Bob I have enough to crank it over since the head and pistons are not in it. Thanks for asking. Waiting for a headgasket to be made to the motor can b reassembled. BE SAFE, Rodger

Hi all. A very interesting Story of Preservation, look foward to further progess reports. Can anyone confirm its history in UK, and provide the UK registration number & registration details.
Thanks in advance.
