| I've seen a similar article - perhaps the same one. Apparently they don't advertise the event enough that I've known about it. George is a short hours drive for me. |

George IA is the home of Sudenga Industries. Check the history section of their website. One of their products was the 'Extra Clutch' for Allis-Chalmers WC tractors giving them live PTO. I have one in a WC. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

George, Iowa was a noontime lunch stop on the A-C caravan to the Albert City GOTO. I believe that Gilbert Vust's brother also was from that town. This is just an example of the many things you see at 10 mph.
