Re: Various Cox Engines In VECO GP -19 Box
Do you have the engine from the box? If those three engines were in that box then they have no relationship to the box. The three engines pictured are all Cox engines. They look complete apart from the one with the wood attached to the mount. (Tee Dee .051). It is missing the needle valve and the propeller screw.

Re: Various Cox Engines In VECO GP -19 Box
Well first we need to establish if the engines are being offered for sale. "elsieestep" hasn't indicated their intentions in that respect.robot797 wrote:how much?
Let's try to help out first of all by identifying what they have and what they want to do.
elsieestep, there's a lot of knowledge on this forum and many people who will be more than willing to help identify what you have. Clearly we need a few more details regarding what your intentions are here.

Re: Various Cox Engines In VECO GP -19 Box
There is only one engine out of the four that I would consider "valuable". That's the Cox Tee Dee .051 that I mentioned in my first post. It needs some work as I just noticed the red plastic carb housing is cracked. To replace that housing plus the needle valve, spinner and prop screw will cost the purchaser a few $$ but they are all available. Opinions about value will vary considerably, particularly if the one offering the opinion also wants the engine.
From my perspective (I don't know where you're based), I'd think that engine as it is should be worth about $40-$50 US, assuming it's ok mechnically.
The other two Cox engines are .049 and come out of their ready-to-fly planes. They look complete and you could get about $25-$30 US each.
The Testors is missing the needle valve but looks ok overall. To the right person it could fetch $25-$30 US if the glow head and starter spring are ok.
Mind you, I'm only offering an opinion here as one who doesn't even live in the U.S. Australian prices would be higher, but I've searched eBay enough to have an idea what the USD value might be. I welcome any other opinions, similar of different. As I said, opinions can vary.
Now if you had the Veco from the box, that would be worth considerably more.

Does $110 sound fair for all?

Re: Various Cox Engines In VECO GP -19 Box
The TD .051 also needs a new carb body along with the missing needle valve and spinner. It should also have a 5 stamped on the cylinder exhaust face or have a groove on the piston skirt. From the picture can’t really tell if it has the correct cylinder. I’ve been burned where I expect a .051 and end up with and engine that has #2 .049 cylinder on a .051 crankcase.
To me that is a $50-60 lot of engines as pictured.

The engine with the gold front piece. Get a closeup picture of each exhaust port.

I think that ”5” means it’s a genuine article.

More than likely it would be complete and original. The only sure way to know now would be to see the 'groove' on the piston.

It’s there. Nothing but the real thing would fit that far up in a #5 cylinder.
