My picture source did not state the engine capacity, but it is indeed a 1907 Horbick. A quick check of my Georgano encyclopedia reveals the same picture and it's captioned as a 15/20. It matters not - the point is awarded.

Very kind of you. About forty years ago I did some research into matters Horbick, so I should have recognised it earlier. At that time Hortbick Diesels Ltd. were still in business as truck engine repairers under the guidance of a Mr. Southern who lived in hopes of finding a survivor of the make. He did have a Horbick nameplate and a couple of wheel hub centres, ready and waiting..........

That's enough these days, isn't it?  Many a Mini or "fast Ford" constructed around some minor items  ;D.
