It happened. Old Moore, the Penhold bunker M211 from 1955, brought to the G749 preservation farm over a decade ago, test fired 8 years ago with the original engine, re-engined with a duramax 4 years ago..... finally got a new coat. The new owner has logged 10's of thousands of miles and sends me mounting mountain pics like this.

Some historical video time.


Part of the sale agreement was the original / unused drive-train pieces come back to the G749 farm and we return Moore the M211/ now Betty the Duramax Deuce, back to Penhold where it served Canada for most of her....his life.....for moore pictures.
