You’ve got some great skills Bruce, thanks for documenting this one. This would have probably been a parts/scrap engine to most, but being it has history and childhood memories it’s a good one to save.
Thanks Nick
That is the only reason I decided to look at it...and ultimately take on its restoration, its apparently more than just a beat up old Jensen #45 needing a lot of attention , its a cherished childhood memory that the owner intends to pass down to the next...and next generation , hopefully when I'm done , it Will perform as designed for those generations & look good doing it 😊👍
