Default The two Jacks

Yes Jack White was great and more than realistic with prices. He also knew where every part was and often it's number without looking it up. He was a pipe smoker so time in the lunch room (Jack's office) were spent in a permanent fug of thick smoke.
If you're wondering what Jack O'Donnell looked and sounded like think of Elmer Fudd which was his nick name among many of the collectors: "Wet's 'ave a wook ova 'ere".
His other forte was to 'Wee-condition" parts by getting me to wash them in the kerosene washer and he'd then spray them black, good as new!
