Dr. Cranky Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Tim, these are gems that we still find by the sides of the road. I can't imagine a day when they are all gone. Those who restore such machines are doing a great service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danno Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 This ones mine that I found in Kansas... WOW!! My Dad's hometown! He was born and raised there, CGHS football star. My Grandfather was the town marshal of a nearby "suburb" ~ that reads, really, really small nearby town; even smaller than Council Grove! I've seen that rig ... way back in the day ... when it was in service! Great looking piece, Dave!!! Thanks for sharing it. I'll have to visit your website ... I assume there are more pics ...
