Any engine collectors out there? I wouldn't call myself a collector but it seems that I find myself buying odd engines just because they are cool or unusual.
I've recently gotten interested in old antique spark ignition engines. I now have four of them. This started with an old 1945 OK Super 60 given to me by my dad when I was a kid. I recently found it in a box completely disassembled just as I left it 30 years ago. Well I cleaned it and put it together in hopes of getting it running again. This got me interested in the old sparkers in general and I aquired 3 more in fine condition. The oldest one is a 1938 OK 60 Special :cool:.
I've also got some giant scale and miscelaneous 2 and 4 stroke glow engines. So far I've only got planes or kits for half of them.
Who else is fascinated by engines?
