Aha, though I think you'd be way better off to find an old 580 West Bend instead.
These can be had for about $150, and parts are readily available.
The engine that you have looks like nothing I have ever seen before.
If it is just for the boys to play with, an old Briggs and Stratton 4 cycle might be an excellent idea.
In junior high I took lots of them apart and figured out how they worked and how to make them run.
Old lawn mower engines can be had for $20 or $30 I would guess.
Good luck with the boys. It's a good project you have in mind.
