Portage re-cap
Great show! If you will, allow me to blow my own horn for a second.
Some pic's of my set up on the end of the show field with the 126, 104, and the 149/DanCo loader rig and the camp setup.
The 149 brought home Best of Show Runner Up plaque.
The original with the BB36 found a new owner while I was there along with a few parts as well.

First off the show field on Wed AM early. As situated it resembles a huge upside down and backwards letter L with the show field the upright leg and the base leg the swap area.

Brett spotted me at the corner where the 2 meet in the background of these pic's.

Here we are on the field and set up on Thursday.
And lastly the camp site at the far end of the fairgrounds where the show USED to be staged last time O showed and vended.
More pic's to follow

More pic's from Portage
Mostly custom builds w/decals to match.
Eye catchers for sure for a lot of folks.

And a few more
The sorry looking 782 sported wheel weights and was sold on the auction for $700+!!
There were 6 other yellow Cubs on the auction as well, 6 NF's and 1 149 w/16HP engine. All of them went for literally pennies on the dollar!! And this was for a charity auction. I could not hear the auctioneer unless I stood by the loud speaker which was 100' away and If I was near him I could not hear, see or understand what he was saying so I did not bid on anything for fear it would turn out to be GREEN!!!
