[SEL] Keane Auction, Haltom City TX

[Mike Royster]

Oh you know me, I took a vow of engine poverty until you restore that Fero 
compressor I found for you some 6-10 years ago!  How's that project going, 
are you still getting you mind "wrapped around it" first?

  I meant to get the big Reeves but I only had $21,999 on me .  Dang I wish 
I hadn't bought that "happy meal" the night before!
