This was also at the auction today....
 Glass jar, with a small pin 'bobber' inside, and a float in the tank to read the fuel level.
Its not original, but I thought it was kinda cool! Someone was thinkin! ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |

| When I was a kid, we had an aftermarket gas cap on our WD that had a gauge built into it. It was about 4 inches tall above the tank opening, and the bottom of it extended to nearly the tank bottom. Don, I decided that I had too much work to do at home to go to Argyle today. Looks like you had some rain this morning. Did you buy anything? |

Nope, my hands were broke today, and lost my bidder number! lol
That WD sold for $850, and the 160 with loader only brought $1300. I think it was bid back in. Looked rough to me, had a hard life. Also a 3-14 SC plow brought $100. Thats it for the orange stuff. ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |
