Thanks for the pic Tim. Still kinda sad. Wonder if it was a gray day the first time it left.

Sure was devastating for me when I first found out. Our local dealer told us, we were all stunned. Being from a rural area before internet, we were blind sided. Say it isn’t so!!!!! Our dad had just bought a new 6060 3 years before the announcement. We are still not over it.

Don't you wonder what happened to these two gentlemen and their sign? Would make a great picture or an RFD-TV story to reunite them and 6070-1972.
