[SEL] Great Engine Day

[McGhee]

 Last fall I picked up a 1913 Fairbanks H hit&miss and a pre 1918 Novo 3 HP
which had been stored in a ole Gents barn for the last 60 years. He would'nt
put a price on them but would take bids so I put in a low bid and forgot
about them. Two weeks later I got a call that they were mine. I was the only
one to show up. When I went to pick them up he handed me a bag with 2 buzz
coils and 8 never used Champion Gas Engine Special spark plugs. Long story
short the H fired and ran yesterday for the first time in over 60 plus
years, after I remembered it needed gas in the tank to do that. Now onto the
Novo before winter is over.
