Wanted: broken 50-70cc engine for therapy project

[wcroninger]

I'm looking for a basketcase small engine that my patients can work on in our outpatient clinic. Many of my folks are recovering from trauma, disease or some other condition that has resulted in decreased coordination of a hand or in problems with memory or following a sequence of steps. In the past I've found that taking a small engine (or motorcycle carb) apart and re-assembling it is a very popular task. The engine does NOT need to be repairable just something with a lot of screws/bolts/parts that can be removed and reinstalled. If you have something you would part with or can point me in a new direction please let me know. Thanks.

How small large are you looking? I'll look around and see what I have I just don't know if I have a 50cc may have something that could work. I have family in Henderson, NC.

Thanks for the reply! Small enough that this old therapist can move it on off the table!! I'm not wedded to an engine. I have a partial Mikuni carb that patients love to mess with so wide open on what I can use. Thanks again!
