Fairmont A6 heavy duty speeder was obtained by the museum in a trade from the Ashtabula antique engine society. The speeder was used on the Bessemer and Lake Erie railroad located in NE Ohio and North Western Pa. The speeder looks pretty rough. Its got a lot of suface rust and its been canabalized.
I plan to change the gas, oil and antifreeze, replace the missing carburetor and brake parts and see if it runs. When the weather gets better I will wire brush and scrape the rust and paint it. I would like to paint it New York central Gray but the museum might want it BLE.
