To my friends at Gas Engine Magazine, here’s something
you don’t see everyday. After seeing this sit out at a local ranch
for 20 years, I was finally able to talk its owner, June Sloan, out
of it, but only if I promised to restore it. She used it when she
was younger. The only tag on it is unreadable, so we just call it
“The Tank.”

If any readers know any information, such as age or make, please
contact me.

Vaughan Motor Co., Portland, Ore., made some similar-looking
– but larger – units. Perhaps it’s one of theirs? – Editor
