    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Bob, have you any idea what that is? The cowl and windshield posts look very similar to one that is out in my back 40. I have never been able to identify it. My best guess was an early 20's Dodge.
