1912 Harley-Davidson Engine For Sale

[ladyrider28]

Hello,
I'm not quite sure how to go about listing this but I have a friend of mine who is trying to sell his 1912 H-D engine. We have no idea on what the worth of this is but I thought maybe someone here would be interested or at least know someone who would be interested. The motor does turn freely and the serial number on it is 2831D. Is there anyone here who could help us? Thank you so much in advance.

The numbers on the case and cylinder should match for premium price, I saw a post from 2007 where the seller was asking 3k with matching numbers, I would bet there are not many out there any more

Thank you. We will check to make sure they match. We were offered 3500.00 so from what you have said then perhaps that is a very good price to accept.
