It's sad, but stuff like this happens all the time....it's life, I guess. Granddad's beloved 30-60 Oil Pull that he bought brand new and ran for 26 years threshing and doing other custom work that raised a family of 9 children went out of the family and none of we grandkids ever got a "shot" at it because an uncle thought we shouldn't have it. He traded it on a IH Scout pickup which lasted him about 6 years. (A POS) I musta pulled the big lever bar to start that Rumely for Granddad a hundred times or more and a few times for my uncle who "took it over" while his brothers, my dad included, stood around and played with themselves. The IH dealer let it set on his lot for 5 years rusting in the Michigan acid rain saying he was gonna restore it eventually. (He later confessed to me that it wasn't to be sold to me or my brothers) Then he up and sold it to some big moneyed collector from upstate and none of us know whatever became of it. I don't care anymore but it sort of hurt for a while. Relatives just plain suck sometimes....,but that's life, uh, yeah.
