    Why no before shots of it in the barn or when it was all crudded up ?

    That's 1/2 the fun taken away, of seeing the before shots.

    I honestly find it hard to believe that it is a barn fine. Have any proof?

    So are you going to tear her down, replace all seals, then put her in the living room?

    Is the water pump cover painted white? Nice find. Are you located in Mississippi?

    This one you SHOULD keep long, it was waiting for you !

    It's a keeper for sure and every other find I bet won't be as good as this one.

    Nice snooping!

    The water pump is white from the dirt dobber nest built up on it. you cant see too many of them in that pic but it was covered in nest.

    I may keep it but if i do i will ride it. there are no garage queens at my house

    i guess, here is the south they are dirt dobbers. they make little mud nest. some use a red mud and make a tunnel and others make a white paste and cacoon their young in it.
