Recently I have been researching through a few old sales lit. for info and pics of these tractors in preperation for the up coming BK repair and restoration. It has finally occured to me that no where in the info I have does anyone make reference to a BK. Only the description Demonstrator or Goldlen Opportunity Demo's are mentioned. Does anyone know the orrigin of the name Black Knight? Rod.

Jim I'm 'fraid were stuck with Barry for another 4 unless someone can definitively uncover his school records that state he was enrolled as a foreign student and then there is the issue of fraud, renoucing his US citizen ship, what passports he held, etc. Wouldn't that be a revelation!

I agree also, but I might add that from the time I first voted for president(1956) to date I have not seen the change in presidents(dem or rep)
have much to do with the well being of farmers. About all I have seen is a different picture of them in the farm offices.
