OS 40/46LA Glow Plug Engine in Original Box
This lot offers an OS 40/46LA glow plug model engine, presented with its original O.S. Engine box. The engine is a small two-stroke unit of the type used to power radio control aircraft and other model applications.
The engine is finished in a silver metallic tone and features a finned cylinder, a crankcase with mounting lugs, and a carburettor assembly with a needle valve adjuster. The O.S. brand is associated with a long-established range of precision model engines, and the box carries the company’s slogan, “Establishing The Standards Of Excellence”. The OS 40/46LA designation identifies this specific model within the range.
Condition and Collector Interest
The lot is described as new in box. The outer carton shows some edge wear, marks to the surface, and a taped seam along the lid. The engine shows some handling marks and a small amount of residue around the carburettor area. Original packaging of this kind is of interest to model engine collectors and to buyers seeking a boxed example of a well-known OS model.
