I'm Tiffany's dad - Don Nohre. This Twin City 40 was made in 1913, the second year of production.All parts are orginal, it is complete and there are no cracks or welds in the engine. The tractor runs like new. It's ten bottom plow is still located somewhere in MN. I understand that this type Twin City was used in Australia. Was it used in England? I was 11 yrs old when we bought and picked up the Twin City. We are the second owners of the tractor. The owner would only sell it to my dad, if dad would promise to keep it in the shape that is was and under no condition sell it for scrap iron. The Twin City 40 weighs 12.5 tons and has spare wheels on that are about 9 inches wide. The drive wheels are about seven feet. It has provenance. The orginal contract to buy the Twin City 40 states that the new owner -------- had to agree to come to their location for three weeks of training before delivery. Only on rare occasions has it sat outside. We also have a Twin City Steam Engine 1917. It came from Little Falls, MN. It was used in a sawmill till my dad purchased it. This is most likely the steam engine, in which, Charles Lindberg's father worked with. Unfortunately, this is may be the the steamer that was involved with the lost of his arm. We will are checking on this. I think that there were two sawmills in Little Falls, MN. If anyone could help on these, thanks. E-mail: donnohre@hotmail.com Address: Don Nohre 417 14th St Milan, MN
