Here's a 1980's Jensen 55 that was in pretty good ship that went off to member Timvrip.



He also ended up with one of these 15's (I believe the left one)



After seeing his restoration/conversion to a 55G, I was very happy I let these two pieces go... 

Here is how it looks after a complete makeover. It's now mounted on a solid cherry base,
has had the firebox repainted with copper paint, and the cast iron parts painted with
a base coat of Duplicolor Hampsted Green and a light top coat of Duplicolor Spruce Green.
It doesn't look quite as blue in real life.

Here is a closeup of the paintwork. It's not exact, but I'm pleased with it.

The cast iron Jensen 15 generator was a little beat up when I got it (also from Nick, thank you),
so I filled some weak areas of the ironwork with JB Weld, then smoothed it out with a
Dremel tool. Looks almost brand new now.
