Not much to report. Bob and Grant roasted a cab 13 door, and I dug canals to help drain Bob's roadway which is now mostly mud. We will have more substantial news to report this coming weekend - ROAD TRIP!

Long weekends are made for road trips. So, three of the Hammond Quartet headed to the deep south of Ontario to cull the herd of a local collector group. Any guesses as to what we got? Here's a clue:

Good Morning to the Hammond Barn
Rob, I am sorry I couldn't make the trek to visit with you guys yesterday. The old Allis Chalmers has severe, as in expensive, hydraulic problems and I was pulling out what little hair I have. I must admit I am very impressed with your clue as to the identity of one of your purchases on the "border raid". . My lips are sealed but don't keep the rest in suspense too long. Congratulations. Barry I put in "smilies" because I know Rob hates them.

See you tomorrow morning for the official off loading....... Road to the barn has dired up considerable.....and was frozen early this morning so we may be able to drive to the back. Grant...... Joyce has not seen how you marked your territory yet !!!! Boob

Here is a clearer shot, but it really does not give the "game" away. Note the subtle differences between the towed truck and a "normal" CMP...sigh, you got me doing it now, Bob.
Hints - Look at the headlamp pot configuration and where the front clip is attached. Also, there is only one of these models known to exist and it now lives in Hammond!

Don't you hate it when one of these peskie CMPs pulls up on your bumper on the highway and just won't pull out and pass. Look like great finds and if you have been reading or viewing BBC looks like two more CMPs escape this BBC story http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7995928.stm Cheers Phil

At this rate we may have to petition to have Hammond renamed as HUP City.
