Well, I don't know. It might be an engine, or a compressor, or a pump. I was on a mission, and just paused on the road long enough to take a couple photos. I will have to go back on my own time some weekend and have a closer look. Gotta be careful; sometimes these things follow you home.
Most likely a pump...compressor second guess. Engine last. That vintage usually had exposed bearing and cranks. Although I see what might be a clutch pulley on one end....

Something like a gear reduction unit from a old lineshaft mill?
