It's been a few days... any updates to share, Glenn?

nothing yet, dont worry, when I get there I will post some pics. This is turning into a tussle. Lol tell you what, our snow if half gone and we have rain most of the weekend. I HOPE next week I get this done.

Oh, a side note, I did find a pretty good early 70s wheel horse dump cart. $80 bucks is the price, condition is normal wear and tear, bumps and bruises. No holes rusted through. Hows the price sound? Allways liked those carts.

Ok. I didn't get to the RJ yet. But I just got back from getting the cart. 70 bucks was the final number.

Ok. So I finally was invited and made it to the "shed". When we moved stuff to peek at the 1957 rj. Here is what I found.

Took one picture and said see ya later. Fellas don't laugh to much. My dumb luck is just bad luck I guess. A very nice old gentleman. Here's a pic. What the heck is it....lol. 857 on the hood. You see Glenn that means it's a 1957. I said you might be right.

he also has a 1980's era 312-8. It was tucked in the back. A bit of a hem & haw on selling the "1957rj" cough.........but the 312 is a definite to be sold. The best thing I liked was a wheel horse aerator he had. I swear packed on the very TOP of the pile of stuff. Really really nice guy, we will see one another again when the weather breaks.

Nothing wrong with a nice original "Short Framer"  :thumbs: Get it dug out and washed up and you'll be in love with it.

right now his thoughts are to sell the 312-8. That seem definite. The 857 he wont commit to sell,,,,,,,yet. He wants to think about it some more. Will let you guys know, when I know. He has a mower deck and blade for it to. Be nice to see those 2 machines out of the shed. When that happens I will snap more pics.

Edit: no prices are set.
