Thanks Jeff, that makes sense. Meeting that guy was probably 5 or 6 years ago and he could have been past 80 and maybe a bit older than he looked, so working on the engine when he was in his late teens to early 20's in 1938 would have been possible. It is sometimes pretty hard to judge age. I know a guy who is 88, still drives S. to Arizona each winter and plays 9 holes or more of golf most days. To me he looks more like 75-78.
