[SEL] WAS The new GEM/question to ALL SEL! / Now Russell Tractor

[George Best]

Yes.  I know that tractor well, in fact it still has my name painted on
the fuel tank.

I restored it years ago and traded it to my friend in Great Falls.  I
haven't been over to his place for a couple of years now so haven't run
the Russell for a while.  Once it warms up it will idle down to where
you hear each cylinder fire.
