1903 12 hp Fairbanks-Morse

[Bert Juffer]

Since posting on this board is a bit slow I thought I show you something from the other side of the big pond (The Netherlands , Europe)
It's a 12hp F-M which has the date 8-04-03 stamped on the end of the crankshaft.
We did a full mechanical restoration last winter and decided to leave it in it's original working clothes.
Runs great @ just 65 rpm.

Thanks for looking!

Goodmorning Bert, I'm missing the picture
Are you guys coming to the Den Oever show Sunday?

[Bert Juffer]

Hi John!
Don't know what happend , picture shows up on my puter without problems.I'll try posting it again.
We won't be at the Den oever show.
The show organisers were quite "unpolite"(rude!!)to us.
So this year we won't be driving our DAF truck with a big engine inside to this show.
We tried to talk to the organisers , but they would be fine without us exhibiting.
It used to be one of our favorite shows , pity the new organisers decided to ruin it!!

Bert,that's one nice engine. It's good to see it out in the sunlight,I bet it was quite a task just to get it out from the back of the storage trailer. I had hoped to run into you at Portland this week.

Hi Randy!
Good to hear from you again!

The engines have moved from the 2 storage trailers& dad's workshop to a new insulated storage building (37 x 83 ft.).
Wish i could be @ Portland!
Oh well , perhaps next year!

Greetings to your family!!
