Just obtained this large brass Dreyfuss Huson boiler and frame..the plain frame is a solid piece of machined brass and so heavy it would make a decent club!What type of motor and drive gear do I need and does anyone have any info as to the manufacturer and era it was produced.

Really tough to tell from your photos.  I am completely guessing here, but I would say Williams boiler, Hines Lines Pacific frame, scratch frame.  I could tell you how to make it into a model, since I have done essentially that, but it is involved.  I had special rods cast in Nickel Silver.  Might still be available from Stevenson.  I machined the drivers from brass dowel, and motor is Pittman/gears NWSL.

Nice toilet seat cover, though.
