Working Engineering Model

Stanford

Would anybody have or know where to locate a working model of some aspect of engineering for an upcoming exhibition in the Limerick area. A cut-away engine/gearbox would be ideal. Model must be visually attractive and be animated to engage students of engineering.

Hi,

Would the Haynes model engine be any use to you?

Contact some of the main car importers in Ireland like Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai etc I'm sure they would have them for training mechanics.

Many thanks for the suggestions

When I was a kid there was a shop window (a driving school, I think), on Aston Quay, with a motorised, cutaway engine in the window. Would have been ideal for your project. Wonder where it went?

I remember that. Reckon it was a Ford. Going back a few years.

Yes I seem to remember that there was a model of a car that might have been 1940s Ford V8 in the window also.
