Stationary/Hit-n-Miss engines
The front engine is a running McCormick Deering LA stationary engine . The middle one is a non running Monitor and the last one is a running Fairbanks Morse. We picked up the cart/trailer at the local junk store. Looks to be an old railway frieght wagon. Had a lot of fun with them so far.This is at my friends place(and green thing in the distance) where did most of the work.
I had some progression pics, but it won't let me do but one .

Re: Stationary/Hit-n-Miss engines
The cart looks nice 
The engines are looking good too
The "green thing" in that size and larger are pretty good units
its the little belt drives in green that I don't have much use for...
Looks like you've had a productive summer

Re: Stationary/Hit-n-Miss engines
Yeah, I think that is a 1T with a dump bed. I haven't seen it run, but Farrell says it does . I should explain that that is not me in the picture, but my friend Farrell Johnson.
He was a Case IH dealer in Homestead Fl, and has a bunch of neat old stuff, but not a lot of IH stuff. He fell out with
the surviving company's new policies toward their dealers and ending up going green when he started his ranch.
