Bill,

Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to drive my Dad's VAO once again...it's been 40 years and it starts and runs better now than ever. It was my pleasure to talk with you and your son at the Pine Crest show. Don

Don, Was very pleased to see you driving your dads old vao, when we came back to get the lai military to load. Had a great time at the show, perfect day and great time with excellent friends. I did not get a chance to ask how the vao got to the greater suburbs of Clover? Johnny

Don, Nice talking to you as well. I am glad you got to drive the VAO again. That Case brings back good memories for both of us. We will try to get to Valmy nest summer, hope you can make it to Pine Crest for the next show. Keep in touch. Bill

Johnny Dollar,

Always good to see you! Hope my stories about Case dealers and tractors are not too boring.

My Dad traded the VAO in on an 830 COM standard in 1974 or 5 @ Newton Implement, Marvin Zimmer, owner. Marvin is one of the good guys. I think have gave us 500.00 for the trade in and probably didn't know what to do with the VAO. Bill's Dad spotted it at the back of Marvin's lot in 1976 and bought it. It was great to see it again and know that it is appreciated.

I want to also thank you for hauling all those Case tractors around to shows. Don

I've just got one thing to add, how could an afternoon go by as quickly as it did? When I got home Jackie asked if we had all the world's problems solved! She said my brother told her we never even moved all the while they were at the show. It was a great time with great case people.

Kenny,

I couldn't agree more. It was indeed a great day talking CASE and more with great people. Have a fun filled and safe trip to KS.

Don

Don the dealer stories are never boring! I remember the 830com delivery/purchase story, but not what was traded in. I always enjoyed visiting with John (Bills dad), wished I would have had more time to talk with Bill would have been another very enjoyable conversation...but of course the constraints of time continually prevail. I like to see CASE tractors at shows and enjoy hauling them! fyi SPIRITS draw LOTS of attention when on the trailer, probably will never own one but enjoy getting it there! Johnny
