Reg, lo and behold my last kill in the WA thread!

You're lying, it's too slender...
Harley-Davidson engine?
Well, I'm hitting the sack.
I won't be online until late afternoon tomorrow, and it's a pity because I'm itching to know...
Nite all.

Morning LM,
Wow, one with a picture on Aerofiles!! You're making it too easy mate!!
Suspected a Curtiss OX engine and found the Lenert B of 1929
Have to be Open House though, as not sure what time I'll get free today!

Morning Skytrain!
Nose wheel is single, as far as can tell from the small original.
Lycoming O-320
Edit: Not a trainer. Not a modification as far as I know. The father used to do some modifications, though.
Tried to add this earlier, but the PPRuNe server crashed on me.

Yes, the server is definitely playing up this morning!
I guess the perspective made me think the engine was much bigger than it obviously is! Is this a homebuild?

I am not sure about it being a racer. The only picture I found in net relates to a wooden model, but it looks like a real aircraft to me. At least it was registered.
And the engine is rather big relative to the rest of the aircraft, hence the "bulbous" nose.
