  15. Thanks Mike , mine is a very clear easy to read #501 , assuming that's around the same era ? Very controllable indeed, was able to feather it right down and then giv'r if needed......
  16. Thanks Frosty , as for a name nothing yet but I'm sure she'll get one real soon...... last time running was about 5 mins after I put it on the temporary foundation !!!! ran beautiful , but yes was able to test run it before loading on my trailer. Bought it from a real nice old fella that really was truly sorry to see it go.......before I left he handed me a handful of tongs and a real nice dog nose hammer....... and next time thru town maybe a 148lb Trenton ! Wasn't quite ready to sell it yet ....... it's on a temp foundation of 4 x 6's with a 1" rubber horse stall mat (shhh don't tell my wife !!) for now and when I pour the slab that you see behind in the photo that will be it's permanent resting place......I'm away on business til Friday but I can't wait to get back home to play with it a bit , I may have a few questions for the hammer experts here in the very near future !!
  17. Been looking for awhile and these are very difficult to find where I'm at........ and to find one in excellent physical and running condition near impossible up here in Canada, patience and checking numerous buy an sells ads daily (many times) has finally paid off , truth be known the rarity of them here , I would have bought in pretty much any condition !!!!!

  19. right place at the right time , very good for you , nice score !!!!!
