Adams County Pa. they sold it to a collector in Elizabethtown Pa. He in turn sold it to a member of Bladensburg. He in turn sold it to a member of Kentland who restored it. it was slime lime in Bendersville.[/quote]
I was the collector in E-town who bought that piece from Bendersville, that thing sounded so beautiful and it was such a pleasure to drive... but I didn't have the money to take care of it properly.. so I sold it to Scott Glazier from Bladensburg (Who is also on Firepics). If I would have had the money, I would have kept that thing forever (or until the wheels fell off). I really miss that engine... I had sent 2 e-mails to Mike Mattison (the guy at Kentland who bought it) asking for a couple of pictures of it. He never got back to me (which doesn't surprise me overly much)... so it is good to see it on here.
