1960's Jensen #50 live steam engine " deal struck" Not for sale anymore.
« on: December 16, 2024, 10:50:55 am »
This engine was restored By IndianaRog with machining contributions from myself. it has been thoroughly gone over by Roger & needs nothing.
price is $4000 & I'm not really wanting to ship it, but I will. It's quite heavy & shipping would be expensive.



Roger's video.

Great price for everything that’s been done to it! If I had spare money laying around, I’d be on my way!

WOW oh WOW, wouldn't I just love to have that ..... restored by two of my favorite steamers!

Only way it could possibly happen currently, is if some payment schedule could be worked out .... which most certainly is NOT expected.

But if it could be considered ... all I can do is repeat myself ..... WOW oh WOW

Gee, are you cleaning house?  Assuming I could afford that engine, I am not sure I'd ever sell it!  Someone is going to be one happy buyer....  perhaps I can go buy a few lotto tickets in the hopes I win to be able to buy this awesome engine!

Jenny said get it for Xmas, which was very nice.....but I can't justify the Aussie Peso exchange rate.

Someone is getting something AWESOME with that!
