Can never get enough of the "quiet" videos. The sound does all the talking for you. Absolutely awesome.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxk_tn1PyY4&t=750">12:30</a> There’s something incredibly satisfying about bringing a 1920s stationary engine back to life. Restoring machines like this is not just about making metal parts move again—it’s about preserving the engineering knowledge, craftsmanship, and history behind them. A wonderful journey that connects the past with the present.

In the USA that old Ford is not beat up at all.<br>Would actually be in great shape for a survivor.

Didn't see this video pop up when it came out. <br>Awesome video Richard. Gotta love that you find and repair these old engines. Heck the most of them are 3 if not 4 times your age. <br>Hope all is well with the family. Take care mister. 👍🫶👍
