First, most of the regulars are aware I have been in a nationwide hunt for a Farmall 240 battery cover for a new tractor I've purchased and will be starting it's restoration later this year. Someone who is unknown to me (I think so anyway) called the wife a couple of days ago and told her to watch for the mail on Friday. She didn't catch the name as she thought it would just be another tractor guy who would leave a phone number for me to call later. Well guess what, in today's mail was a box from the state of Wisconsin and inside was a Farmall 240 battery cover - and get this, not just a cover but that impossible to find original shift pattern plate riveted on the cover. This is just an impossible event in my tractor collecting days following retirement as I have never been the recipiant of such generosity in the nine years I have been active among this group of well serving individuals associated with these old red tractors. Whoever this individual is I certainly hope they come forward and allow me to personally thank them for making this my very best April Fool's Day. My email is open if you care to respond in that manner and thanks so much for sharing such a difficult item to locate, Hal.
P.S. I have met so many wonderful folks in my tractor endeavors and have many friends that I usually get to meet up with at the RPRU's and hope I get to introduce myself to another one this year in Albert Lea this June.
