I was invited to visit, This old house long ago turned into storage, filled with tractor carburettors made of brass and old magneto's from the 1920's upwards to mid 60's they're in rough condition.
Old tractor shop manuals, complete but in rough condition.
The mags and carbs disassembled with the usable goods sold as parts, shop manuals scanned with OCR ( Optical Character Recognition ) digitizing will clean up the pages.
The contact points from the old magnetos will be made of platinum, clip them short with the least bit of base metal then digest the base metals in nitric acid, I'm left with pure platinum buttons.
Inside the house a complete Pony engine from a John Deere Model R, worth its weight in gold, my host did not want to part with it.
