[SEL] Hillbilly Flywheeler's show / now Milton Auction

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Luke,
    I had a great deal of interest in it until I saw it.  The gearing is 
gone (some teeth on both the crank and cam gear are rusted almost 
completely away), the cylinder is pitted bad and its about as rusty a 
hunk of iron as I've ever seen.  Surprisingly, its not stuck.  You can 
roll it over and look in the back of the cylinder.  Some REAL heavy 
pitting can be seen.  I suspicion this old hunk of iron has never seen 
the inside of a shed in its lifetime.  It would have to be pretty cheap 
to end up in my barn.
