Andrews 4 Gear Drive Cam Set Components

This is a collection of various metal components, likely part of a cam gear drive system, presented in a cardboard box. The items appear to be made primarily of steel, with some components exhibiting a black oxide or similar dark anti-corrosion coating, while others show bare, machined metal surfaces. The assortment includes several threaded shafts and bolts, a large rectangular plate with multiple threaded holes, various washers (including a large flat washer and a smaller dished washer), and several irregularly shaped block-like pieces with bore holes and mounting points. One block appears to have a cog or gear-like pattern on one end. The overall color palette is dark gray, black, and metallic silver/bronze. There are no obvious signs of significant wear, heavy rust, or major damage, suggesting the parts are either new, unused, or very lightly used. Some minor scuffs and marks consistent with handling are visible. The internal flaps of the cardboard box are printed with the 'ANDREWS' brand name, suggesting either the manufacturer of these parts or a distributor. The quality of machining appears high, with clean lines and precise threading, indicative of components designed for a specific mechanical application where tolerances are important. Given the '4 gear drive cam set' context, these are likely precision-engineered components for an internal combustion engine, possibly for a motorcycle or other small engine application, designed for performance or specialized modifications. The estimated age would be relatively modern, perhaps late 20th century to present, given the manufacturing quality and packaging.
