It took 3 tries to get this poll up correctly.
I believe it is good now.

very close indeed, only one vote separate's the top 2 contenders , hopefully if we keep this topic fresh & continually kicked to the top in the "new replies" members will continue to see it.

I was guessing that Bing was Danny's, but the backdrop was different from his normal one. If I had a second vote, it would have easily gone to that J-42

Thank you so very much gentlemen
I'm glad and honored the engine was voted engine of the month.
Even, dow I had to give it a light restoration, it was and still is an early and rare masterpiece made by the Bing Brothers.
And I'm glad you recognized it as so.
But I Also have to say that each entrance was a masterpiece on its own.
And I do hope we'll see many entrances to come

Unfortunately you won't see much new from me the next few months due to an accident

The accident just happend and I'm already frustrated I Can't start a new restoration project

Anyway let the new entrances for future competitions come in, as each entrance is a joy to look at…

Thank you,
Danny
