Been a very long time since I posted any of my finds. Here are a few finds of the summer/fall/winter.

Display box of AC air filter restriction indicators.

AC o-ring service kit.

Wooden letters for "parts, sales, service", need the deutz green paint stripped off.

OK, not AC but New Idea was a popular sideline in AC dealers. I thought the "SuperPicker" sign was appropriate;) They are metal-framed prints, got five frames and probably seven prints.

I arranged some of my paint cans into a paint display.

Also decided to hang up one of my sets of pennants.

Also scored the Kohler flange sign. Its cool because its from 1973 and fits well with the 400 series tractors.Ok, thats enough for now...

Thank you. Never thought of a cover charge$ The problem is I am becoming a hoarder. This is just some of the stuff. I have a fair bit in the house too. Don't worry though I've already had plenty of people want to help relieve me of my "problem."

I would camp overnight to "PICK" your place if there was ever an estate sale :D. You my friend are not a hoarder in my book....just a real serious collector of real cool stuff!8D

I'd offer to "store" some of that AC equipment that seems to be "crowding" your workspace. Heck, it would just be up here in Wisconsin! LOL!

Thanks for the "storage" offers. I still think its too clutteredC I am a slob but a neat freak at heart. I have decided I need to condense the tractor fleet down to what will fit in the shed. Going to try to sell all the small frames except my Homesteader, probably a few large frames too. Would be nice to be able to fit the truck in the garage when I need to work on it;) This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as the AC stuff. I have lots items stuffed away in boxes. I would like to either replicate or find an old dealer building and put in a parts counter, showroom, etc. But the budget $$ may never allow for that.

I finally got the OK to get a portable shed to put BGBs, mower decks and attachments into. Hopefully it will help me to clear the floor in the large shed.
