Tom W I found that auction listing online... looks like it was a dandy.... I assume you bought this 100

And for Kraig and the others... here's some other photos from the auction listing. Looks like tons and tons of toys in addition to this stuff.

This is from the sale bill.

I couldn't make it but my buyer did. Needless to say he got carried away with my checkbook.

 

[jschahl]

I can imagine. I just hope you had some checkbook left to pay for the gas to haul it all back here! Can we look forward to seeing some of that literature on your new page whenever you get it up and running?

Oh Charlie, is it time for me to make another road trip to visit you??

Look what followed me home!

Picked this fairly nice 102 up from a guy who put it up on Craigslist for $100 before he was going to have it hauled away for scrap. Just beat it out of there before the skies opened around Baltimore last night. PO claimed he used it regularly til about a year ago when the engine went south, but the rest looks decent, if a little dirty.

Nice snag Bruce !

 

[jschahl]

Definitely a nice save from the scrapman! I wouldn't kick it out of the driveway.

Does anyone have a good picture and the mearsurements of the grill material for a 100? Mark Jackson's not making them anymore. I'm wondering how big the holes in the expanded metal are "supposed" to be. I have a scrap of catwalk screen that may just have to do.

I went to look at it thinking it might be a decent parts tractor to fix up the other 102 I have, but it looks like my old 102 might not be much more than a parts tractor for this one. I haven't really dug into it yet to see what I have, but everything looks complete, straight, and not messed with a whole lot. Not sure what the angle iron around the bottom of the dash tower is about though.
