[SEL] Salesman Sample Olds?

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Yeah Denis, I've seen a few of the cutaways.  I saw a 1 1/2 McCormick 
(it might be the one you have but I don't remember the bright yellow 
paint), a  1 1/2 New Way, a 1 1/2 JD and maybe another.  All have been 
regular engines that have had portions cut away to show piston, rod, 
cylinder, carb, etc.  None have been miniature versions of the larger 
engines made for traveling salesman to take from town to town other than 
the Stickney that I saw.  I wonder how they did your IH cut away?  I 
remember the New Way looked like it had been milled away and the JD 
looked like it had been sawed.
