Why you got a picture of my wife's car, and why is it blue?

And why does it have that carrying handle thing on the back?

Last time I looked in the garage it was a metallic dark gray.   Kinda used to that color.  ::)

OK, I have my computor up and running at speed again, so now back to Camp Creek:

Considerin' the last few posts, this may be what to do next, silage. ;D

Some of the guys who show up there specialize, this guy had quite a collection of silage cutters, don't know how many specialize in them but he is said to have one of the biggest collections in the world. ;)

This one was running on a hit and miss:





A hand powered one:



This one was belted to a smaller steel wheel popper, think it was a B:









This guy sure had a lot of them:

Along the same lines, I should have walked closer to get this, quite a herd of hand crank corn shellers:

Un-restored a lot of the stuff like the silage cutters and corn shellers don't bring much, so a person can build a collection at a reasonable price if he has some restore skills.

If we had a place in the country with a machinery barn, I would like to "tinker" with an old tractor and maybe an old truck or pickup.

Del, I liked the Nash Metro and the De Soto. I just love old cars and enjoy being a "gearhead".

That Harly is an 80 ci flathead UL model.

Don't know that much about old Harley's, but look at this picture, ain't that some sort of valve cover to the side?



And don't the flathead/L-head have the plug in the center?
