Hi, folks. Don't normally post here. Normally I'm over in the N-Ford forums, where I posted the following msg, and where I'll check for responses in case anyone is interested.While driving around NW of DFW looking for land that might make a grass runway I happened to notice an old, ragged wind-sock next to a farmhouse and barn. So I drove up, got out and played with the dogs until a nice elderly gent came out and asked me if I "was representing someone,....or just myself?" I told him I was lost and noticed his windsock and dogs and hoped someone was home. He turned out t be a retired Air Force Colonel (WW-2 P-51 pilot, based in Italy in support of the 15th Air Force) and we struck up a friendship. Turns out he's also a retired farmer and I happened to get a tour of his place, which included a 1950 Massey-Ferguson Super 62 Combine that was in excellent condition. (Just in case any of you guys happend to want some old iron.) He said he started it up a couple months ago, has owned it since new. Never had thought about selling it until I mentioned it to him, and then after he thought about it, said,...why not? Wonder what it'll bring? I told him I'd mention it. So I have.
