this bomb looks to be one of the "taken in central sask" bombers, just repainted and mirrors installed and the serial # on this is very close to the serial # on the one in "taken central sask" but i am not sure if it is one of them, if you compare this to one of them you can see the similarities between them, i can't say it is but it looks like it

Gee Ford f-150, youv'e got an eye for detail like OT has.   ;)  Serial number is 2 units newer.  This one looks like it may have been repainted.  It seems that it is a different yellow (could be just the picture) and a fair bit cheaper.

I drove out to this machine yesterday. It's in Big River, Saskatchewan. I have some pictures that I could share with you guys. I had intended on buying it after seeing the pictures but it was not in the condition I thought I had seen in the pictures. The machine was underpowered, recently painted, I could see damage to the beaver tail (12'' X 12'' hole that had tin placed against the hole from the inside and paint splashed over the outside)  In short, it wasn't something I was looking for. I would think 23000.00 would fetch me a machine in tip top shape. But that's just me.

On the other hand, If someone has a good machine, near Alberta or Newfoundland, I'm looking to buy. Thanks,

Brian K.

  Brian Kelly you missed out on a nice narrow gauge in Gander last fall, & Arch Barret sold his wide gauge to someone in Quebec back in December. Are you planning on keeping the machine in Alberta or down here on the rock ?? I saw your web site. Is Bill Kelly & Mike's sons in Howley related to you ? I live in Pasadena. Welcome to Northern Tracks !!!!
