The 5297 is home. This is the toughest thing I have ever tried to buy. I spent two years trying to get the lady to sell it to me. Many people told me it couldn't be bought, this family NEVER sold anything. At times I gave up. Cynthia always pushed me to try again. She always reminded me of how I had charmed her mother and told me to do the same with this lady. I owe her for having faith in me.
If my old memory serves me right, Erik Ksfarmer​ is the one that found this for me. Special thanks to Cameron Biby​ for helping get it home this weekend.
This ends a 15 year search for a 5297.
I think it looks pretty good setting in my front yard.
1. Pulling the 5297 out of the timber with the M5 and a stiff hitch.
2. Getting it on the road and lined up.
3. Picture of Clydine, the lady I bought the 5297 from.
4. The 5297 setting in my front yard. I think it looks pretty good here.
This is the first time I have used the new photo upload, hope I get it right.
