well, I just bought a tractor from an older fella. I called them on the weekend, and he said it didn't run, he had broken the distributor rotor. went ahead and look at it anyway, I got to talking to him, and I figured I could trust him, so I told them I'd go ahead and take it. but he said no, that he wanted for me to hear it run first.and he wouldn't take my money either. but he told me he wouldn't sell it to anybody else and if I didn't like the way it ran he would just advertise it again in the paper. so to make a long story short, I went back up there again, and sure enough, it ran, and sure enough, I bought it. But I think if it was a younger person and they got a better offer, they would've sold it to them, or tried to jack me up. Best wishes to all of you, Tom
