Some Day Engines May Be In Museums15-Year-Old's HobbyBy Edgar Johnson, Jr.The Democrat, Flemington , P. O. Box 11, Flemington, New Jersey 08822 Most kids at the age of 15 are out swimming or playing ball come summer, but Edgar Johnson Jr. of rural Ringoes is more likely to be found down in the basement garage restoring antique gasoline engines. Restoration is the word, too, because Johnson starts with old, beaten-up liulks with pistons rusted to cylinder walls. He finishes with finely running engines covered with gleaming coats of paint. Part of it may be that Edgar's dad, Edgar Johnson Sr., is a mechanic and runs an auto body shop on Hampton Corner Road in Raritan Township.
