Majestic engines

Got a chance to buy a couple majestic engines, 1915, and 1916 I believe. One running and one is complete but not running. Both are on carts. I know that is not much to go on but I need to know about what the Majestic engines go for. What would be a fair price for both engines. Thanks for your help.gcm
 
Price depends on several things, the right cart, cracks and welds, parts missing, original paint, and size of the engine will play a huge part in the size of the price. The cart could be worth 2-3 hundred dollars, and a nice repaint will often bring less than an original, but the size is the big factor, the bigger the better. The Hartman Majestic is a contract brand from Waterloo, they sold engines to sixty-some different dealers, each with their own name. Majestic, Sandow, and John M. Smyth were amongst the most successful. I would say they should be priced about 80-90 percent of a comparable Waterloo Boy, they are the same thing as the Boy with a different shaped hopper and a cheaper governor and mixer. Small ones, like 2hp and smaller, should bring eleven or twelve hundred if they are really good, complete engines. The price often boils down to what you can get it for. I have given as little as $75 for a small 1-1/2hp that was goofed up a little but running to as much as $3,000 for a gorgeous, but not running, 6hp. Do a google search for "Majestic Engine Homepage", J.C. has compiled quite a bit of info on Waterloo stuff. If you get into a nice Waterloo you will forget where you left that Stover!
 
Thanks Arnold for all the info. I really appreciate your help. I have had several engines over the years but never had a Majestic. I saw these two engines about a year ago but they were not for sale then but are now. I don't recall a lot about them but they looked pretty good. I will see them later this week I hope. I will post some pictures when I see them again? Thanks gcm
