It's the missing flux capacitor from the Mr. Fusion unit in the back to the future Delorian! I swear! Seriously it's a cool crankshaft from some sort of engine!" "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

No idea what it fits, but I'd bet that the wife of the guy that took time to bolt it to that board for the Flea Market told him he was an idiot, too, but he sold it!Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

That's the crankshaft for a 1912-1918 Wisenheim Knorklemister.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

ok Everyone. the mystery has been solved. It is the crank shaft for a 1928 willys knight. I called the woman who shipped it 20 years ago. Her name was on the return address. The flea market fellow has more parts for the engine. Dont know if iam going to buy the rest of the parts or not.
