The Jensen 20-G is now cleaned up and reassembled and ready for a steam test with it's new power cord.
This engine showed no signs of wear and almost no sign of use. Even the heater still looked new!
I have just filled it for a run which I hope to film. I also snded the swood suface just a little and
added a coat of urethane over the Jensen finish. Pretty soon it will be for sale. This one also has
one of those neat boilers with the flat end caps that disappeared after a few years.

This piece is as fresh and crisp looking as any of the best I have or have had.

I have never seen a nice Jensen 20 Gil...you started with a great piece and added that RedRyder touch!

This will make someone a happy steamer, good luck with the future sale.

That Jensen 20G runs very well and is a real looker, i'm sure whoever buys that will be very happy with it.
