Jim,
I just only have seen this message and it is June already. I have just seen this message today.

Could you send me more information about what you have for the Jacobs Governor and other parts (tail assembly, slip ring assembly, etc if you have such and wish to perhaps part with some) to the following email bz48vwyaz @ omnitelcom.com rather than reply through this forumn.

Pictures sent along with any information such as your location, etc. would be great.

I will look forward to communicating with you.

Thanks,
Bill Z.

Jim,

I got that email address wrong.
The correct email to contact me is bz48vwyaz @ yahoo.com

That other address I gave you in regards to the Jacobs governor is incorrect.

Thanks,
Bill Z.
