Jon Selzer 22 collects and restores 30 plus early gasoline engines dating from 1905 near Guthrie Minnesota. He researches each unit’s background, plans a county fair display with demonstrations, and handcrafts or modifies parts as needed. He views the engines as a local history link before electricity.
