Clarkair CA-1 Discussion Board

Hi, I am new to this site and share a lot of interest in these fine machines. I am in the process of rebuilding one of my own. Going slow but it is getting there. Most of the upper part done and ready for paint (sorta). It will be awhile before I will be able to get at the bottom end, rollers, track pins, etc.Mine is a 1943 CA-1 Serial # CA-143549 and the US # 963620 The Corps of Engineers # is blank. Thanks for having me. awleblanc

I am from upstate New York. I have been working on this for quite a few years now. I'm sure it will be awhile yet before it is back up to running. I will try to send some photos soon. Thanks for the Welcome. Art

Sorry Ken, I don't. I rebuilt my Engine maybe 15 years ago and it has been sitting there till now. I came real close to junking the whole thing when I had to move but I found a site on line and it renewed my interest . I am very happy that I did. I hope that my engine is still good. If I hear of anything , I will let you know. I have a Waukasha ICK engine that is in a CLIMAX generator unit that I tried to sell but no takers. I will someday pull the engine out and see if I can salvage that, ( it is seized ) You gotta love those Wauk engines. I can't find where to go to post pictures.

dont say that dirty word "junk"
