and then you wish you could get that size 10 boot you got on around to kick your ownself in the butt !!! Oh well, scrap metal will go back up one day I guess or then again it might be a good project for me to do a complete strip down and spend a bunch of money on and make something out of it ! But hey, I like O's so who know's ?????? My only hope now is for it to have a 3 or 4 digit serial number but right now if I can get it loaded in the truck and home without it falling down to complete dust I'll be happy . And I guess I wouldn't scrap it anyway because as an old Cub Collector told me one time (here you go Jim S) I hate to see people part out O's and I guess a little of that rubbed off on me when he sold me my first O.

It's not all rusted away... it just needs paint.

Look- it came with curb lights!

Yep, them thar custom headlights wuz whut made me want it ! :lol: :lol: on a serious note we dodged Tornado's going to get it and coming back, seriously, and almost constant rain and lightening . Guess you could say we went thru " hail and high water " to bring that one home from middle TN. Did meet one heck of a guy in the process that will be a good " cub connection " for the future. Pretty much give out and Corey's Z71 took a beating getting it home . We're home and looks like for now the Tornado's are past us .

And on a positive note, for me at least, it is a 1961 according to the serial #. :beer:
