Title: Picked new machines yesterday!!!!!!
Post by: crackerman_don on September 11, 2015, 11:49:56 am
Well I got to finally meet Joey yesterday and I also got to meet Marvin too and joeys friend and refrigeration guy Eric
We had a good show in Tennessee and now have to go home tomorrow and see my chiropractor after we loaded that Mills machine . It's small but full of lead I think or just might be some of Joey's gold he forgot to get out.
They are wrapped up in blankets but I will send pics tommorow or Sunday when I get back home. Thanks guys for the help loading and will see you soon


Thanks Don

Well took me awhile today but got truck unloaded and here are the pics of the VMC 7 up 81 and the Mills 45 I picked up in Tennesee from Joey I Also bought this a week ago from a buddy of mine and stopped by on the way back and took picture of as I did not have room for it on truck. The champion horse has original saddle and is 2 speed when you pull on bridle. Can't wait to get the Mills 45 machine restored and 7 up machine too. I want to do mills 45 first though. Thanks again Joey for all you did and Eric and Marvin too.

Great machines. The Champion in high gear would be considered unsafe these days. Taught "holding on" skills when made. Enjoy the cool toys!!

Very nice mills. Glad you joined the club. I know you've been searching for the 45 for a while now. It's going to look great in the new place.
