JEnsen 5When a good friend needs money and puts sometihng up for sale, I offer some non Steam items for a trade ( with friends like me who needs enemies? )
Anyhow parcels were posted in Ma and In on Saturday morning and much to my surprise the Postman delivers this to me today. I changed a few screws out with eyelets and this is what I have, a black firebox Jensen 5, I am quite pleased with it and it sure is pretty too, Owen outdid himself cleaning this one up ( The boiler sure looks familiar though )
It runs like the clappers too, it is so convenient to fire up an electricly heated engine when one is tired and doesnt need t mess with a flame.
It is a companion to this one that has the brick firebox, giving me two variations of the 5

That looks good John, and it is nice to have two different variants of the same model.

I need to get an old style chimney and my Jensens will be complete. I repeat that it is so nice to be able to run an engine without messing with a flame sometimes, no odor, no fire, lots of fun still.
