Re: Thermal Hopper Question.
Head looks correct as does backplate, externally the cylinder looks correct. Should be dual bypass, tapered grind with SPI.
Front end /crankcase is typical of most early cox engines. The front acorn nut has been ground down or damaged.

Re: Thermal Hopper Question.
Thanks Cribbs, it looked legit to me as well but wasn't to sure about the ridges on the side of the crankcase next to the backplate. I did purchase it so have to wait to inspect it more.
Thanks Canso07.

Re: Thermal Hopper Question.
I think what you are seeing is just a casting flaw.

Thermal Hopper
Hello everyone,
my name is Nicu, I am from Romania and I am glad to be part of this forum.
I have a limited collection of cox engines at the moment, but I want to expand it. At the moment I am looking for a Thermal Hopper, if anyone has one for sale, I would be happy to discuss a sale price.
I look forward to relying on your support

Re: Thermal Hopper Question.
thanks for the answer, the first option is much too expensive for me, I would like to fit in a maximum of $ 90.
I will follow the auction course on ebay.
