Some guys have all the luck

So.....
One of the guys I fly with sent me an email a while back. Says he bought a box of engines for $2 at a swap meet. Says he found a Cox engine and didn't know what it was. He said I was the small engine guy and I would probably know what it is. Well, he sends me this photo.
So I tell him its an OK engine from Cox.... kinda old... looks neat..... I'll give ya $10 for it.
But, I was the nice guy, I sent him a couple of links with good inf on his RR.
I did offer him $10 for it again a couple days ago.

That's definitely a bit of good luck!!! Maybe he'll give it to "you".. since you're his "small engine guy". Then you'll be the lucky one!!

Maybe we ought start a thread “Engine deal of the Month”. It is spring and many people are cleaning their closets and attics of stuff they don’t want or need anymore. Like Kim said, Swap Meets is the place to be! Here is a picture of some things I’ve bought recently.
15 engines for $150.00
A couple of Firsts for me, my first Crystal Case Medallion, first K&B Infant. It includes one of those $15 pink rubber nose spinners too!

Nice find Aero, a RR1 for two bucks!!
And Rene, no Enya's in that group, tough luck. You must be devastated. Looks like one or maybe two RR1's in there might make up for your sorrow.
I would have jumped on it too. Enya's or no.
