Smile Ford air compressor
Years ago someone marketed a flathead Ford engine with one bank modified to pump air. Anyone know where I could find one? Looking to restore it.

The flathead/compressors I have seen used two cylinders on each side as the compressor and the rest provided the power.

You can look in the 'Member Information Page' on that site. If you click on his name under one of the photos, you'll get to the info page.
