Great find. It proves that there are still some out there to look for. Congratulations. Now, if i didn't already have "too many", I'd be searching harder LOL. Bob@allisdowneast ------------- I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not sure. |

| It kind of looked like it had North of Nashwauk mud on it. I guess this makes us even for the Floodwood RotoBalers, then? |

Great looking original WD. OK question, the bottom neck of the intake is very long compared to the ones on my WD's?
