Martin Whybrow Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I recently obtained a couple of old OS engines; the first is an OS Max 50 R/C which looks very similar to the 1965 model on the OS web site; the second is an OS Max-S 30 R/C which looks very similar to the 1964 S30 R/C. Both of these engines are un-run and complete with silencers and instruction books. Does anyone know if these have any particular value?

Martin Whybrow Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 Ah, should have mentioned that; yes, both engines are in their original boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Grigg Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Its adifficult one I bought 2 lovely old engines an os 25 for £5 and anOS 40fp or £8 but then gave £28 pounds for a brand new OS 40 FP in its box found in a loft.I bought them for a specific job and used the £8 one because it was covered in a cowl and thought that would be a shame for the new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Skilbeck Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Stephen, if they are just old version of current or recent models then they don't tend to be worth much, but if they are old unused discontinued models then they are appreciating in value, especially if they are something sought after.

Engine Doctor Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Hi Martin .Being unused and boxed they will obviously have a higher value than a used old engine ,but still only worth what someones willing to pay.As you say they look like the 64 and 65 models then they should be worth a few pounds . Prices are a bit low at the moment but if you are putting them on e-bay I would start at £50 each . A collector who wants that enigine in mint condition would certainly pay that and the price may go higher as there are'nt many of those in mint condition around.Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Grigg Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I agree Frank trouble with E Bay is it varies from week to week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
