I found this little guy near Lafeyette, IN, and it was close to being headed to the scrap yard. It was perfect for my daughter's new place, and I got it cleaned up and working in time for her birthday yesterday. When I checked the operator's manual, I was surprised to see it was originally sold by my buddy, John Coon, in May of 1976, thru his dealership in Hillsboro, IN.  |

Thanks guys...it feels good to keep one working. Sorry Steve, nothing new on the D21 project. I'm finishing up the work on my Uncles' 56 Ford pickup now, and I won't be able to get back to it until mid-summer. How's the Nova project going? Take care.
