I see rumors that it is headed to Connecticut
Coming via FedEx freight & I'm delivering it 😉👍
If the rumors are true, it likely landed at Dudley Diebold's place in Roxbury and I will get to see it. 
It's less than 25 miles from our home in Torrington.

Give it another couple of years, the investment bankers and real estate flippers will have our economy so devalued, a 1972 Chevy Vega with a half a roll of NECO wafers in the ash tray will go for a million, and a dog house with a feed sack for a door will come with a thirty year mortgage.

It only means the biggest boys with the biggest museums will even have a chance to get the really good stuff.

I have seen a few more people confirm that it’s headed to Dudley Diebold’s collection in CT, so maybe Gil will get to see the new record high tractor in person one day.
