Cox Engine of The Month
How about a NIB Cox Black Widow for $6.27?

How about a NIB Cox Black Widow for $6.27?
Ah, the good old days.....
Another rainy day here in West Virginia, can't get out so I thought I would go through my meager NIB collection of Cox engines to see if I wanted to sacrifice one or two to use on my 1/2A Mosquito twin.
I bought most of these in or prior to the 1970’s and reflected on the prices of these way back when. How about a Babe Bee for $9.50 marked down to $5.77,
or a Black Widow for $12.50 marked down to $6.27
or a Texaco for $19.99.
Or a Killer Bee packed by someone with something other than his/her job on the mind.
With the Killer Bee you even got a coupon for five bucks off on several Cox airplanes. Such a deal
After some thought I think I will just leave these Estes gems in the box and look elsewhere for a used pair of Golden or Black Widow Bees for the Mosquito.
Sorry for the picture quality, rainy days and a flash - not the best combination....

Ah well, it isn't a photography forum. Thanks for the pictures. Something to entertain us on a gray damp Winter day. It is here anyway.

Re: How about a NIB Cox Black Widow for $6.27?
Looks nice regardless man, wish I had some NIB. All of mine have been used at some point in time. I have a couple of Estes as I call imitation Black Widows with the plastic tanks that I'm planning on building up with good parts in the future to put on a twin. haven't decided on which one though.

Nice engines! Mine are all used, the only one bought new is my "original" bee from 1983 or 4, unfortunately the box is long gone, as is the manual and I have even managed to have lost the wrenches it seems
If you want to make a huge profit, I'll gladly pay $7 for that Black Widow and even chip in for shipping
