I'm trying to figure out what this one could be. It looks like it might be a motor mount of some type, but I don't see how it could work.

The smaller holes are about 2 & 7/16" C of C.

Thanks

Hmmm... Fifty views & no replies? :shock:

Would it be safe to ass-u-me that this IS NOT some valuable, vintage part? :?

Believe it or not, that had not occurred to me. ;)

I had briefly thought that it may be a quarter sorter... but then I had a 'change' of mind. :roll: :lol:

It's a base for a kit to convert a hand drill into a drill press. It's missing the rod and fulcrum assembly to mount the hand drill. The base screws onto a workbench, and the hole in the middle allows the drill bit to pass through.
I sold a complete one about a year or so ago for $1500.

Here's the rest of the lot.

Several 'mystery parts' in the pile. Any of you guys recognize some of this stuff?

Here are those two 'teardrop port' modified intakes.

It would've been interesting to know what the results were with these.

Brake drum looks like a Bendix.

Supposedly, the old ones are better than what's currently available, because of material thickness. I guess the new ones flex a bit; probably better suited to a yard-kart than a vintage racing kart.

Yours is probably one of the originals.

I also see a disc brake caliper mount, and what look like caliper half spacers (upper right in the group picture).
