Thank you. It came from Kansas. It’s actually an interesting story how we got that one. We had a 1049 before that one and a guy locally that brought it in from Kansas offer this one for sale pretty reasonable. And we bought it. I then put the 1049 on Craigslist. The first phone call was a guy from Saint Louis with a Mexican accent and he wanted to come look at it. It all seemed strange but I gave him directions. That day dad and I were both concealing. As it turned out. He was a siding and gutter contractor originally from Argentina and his brother was an alfalfa farmer. They planned to dismantle it and ship it down there. We had hay ready and I gave them a demonstration and we agreed on a price. A month or so later they came to pick it up and drive it to St. Louis. I can only assume it’s in Argentina now. |
