Just made it back home this afternoon after five weeks of work and a week of vacation... not sure how many of you noticed I was gone... but I was.
I've had very little internet access, so I wasn't able to view pics/vids unless I wanted to wait several minutes. I did however read several posts while I was away, but didn't have the time to respond (I haven't posted since July 15th! ). I have now gone through the recent videos and have enjoyed them all, thanks everyone for posting them!
The poor internet access didn't keep me away from ebay though. I've picked up a couple engines (and found a steal on Craigslist, a 1951 Jensen 10 for $175!)
I'll post pics/vids soon, and it's great to be back on the forum!  |

I hope to give the Jensen a run shortly if the heater is good. |

Talking about deals, would you like to buy my 1930s Jensen 4 Bolt 25 for $40 US.
It does need a fair bit of work though. |
I will gladly give you $40 for it plus shipping!
Yep, I've seen it. I'm glad someone here got it and after seeing your past restorations, I know it's in good hands. |
