Enjoy!

Notice: YouTube claims I have a Miranda Lambert track blocked in Russia owned by SME on behalf of Epic/Nashville and is blocking access at the moment... at least for some territories. I am working on it. Evidently there are 13 seconds of one of her songs that just happened to be on the radio when we were being filmed. You can barely make out the song at all and it has nothing to do with us. I may try to cut out the 13 seconds from 10:59 to 11:12. The radio is in it longer than that but they don't seem to have caught more than 13 seconds. I tried applying for a license for the song or album. Still waiting to hear back. It would not bother me at all if the song played clearly and was an integral part of this video but it isn't even close to important here.
Issue solved by cutting out the 13 seconds in question. At least YouTube made that pretty easy to approve and get done. The dumbest thing is the song goes on for another 30 seconds or so after the part they asked me to remove. At 11 minutes in, you can barely here the part of the song they allowed to stay and you couldn't hear much more of the removed part.

It is sooooooo good to see such a rarely seen wonder as a Jensen 51. That it is going to Bill through Gil by way of Charlie just makes it all the more special.I'll add the rest of it's history. It was purchased new in the mid 1990s by a well to do family for their young son. What a lucky boy he was! Fast forward about 20 years and this fellow had grown up and decided to sell it. Our own CrazyDoug got it from him. Eventually he passed it on to Charlie. Charlie took custody of it at Cabin Fever the same time Doug took custody of a Major Beam that I passed on to him. Charlie protected it well and delivered it to me in in Indiana and in great condition.
But shouldn't the count on Jensen 51's be 28 if we count Rog's wonderful creation?!?!

You should have called me, I would have met you at Jensen’s. How did you like those engines that Tom SR made for himself?Yep
I wish I had thought of that. It was 1:00 am when we arrived in Greensburg.
Here's hoping you have a wonderful time. :)We did!
