Congrats on the nice find!!  |
They don't grow on trees here either. I already have two other complete Cyclops Supers and one diesel minus the engine. Here's the rest of the story.
My wife and I were just riding by this neighborhood. This guy had a couple of push mowers, the CC and something else sitting out there for sale. I didn't say anything but just rode on around the block and pulled back in his driveway. Before the truck rolled to a stop, my wife was already bidding on the damn thing. I told her she was too cheap and I further told her that I wasn't going to pay what the guy wanted for it but I wanted to just check.
She insisted that I go ahead and buy it, whatever it cost. I continued to resist doing anything rash. Anyway, turns out the guy had two very large flat screen TV's for sale as well. I was in the market for two. One for the screened in porch and one for my garage.
Wife is jerking on my sleeve wanting to know what he wants for the Cub. I tell her. She says "buy it" and I'll pay for it. That can be your 50th wedding anniversary present from me to you. I tell her it's not worth that much to me to buy it but she insists.
Long story short, I left this guy's house with the CC and two flat screen TV's.
I feel blessed with a wife like that. I know some of you guys have to check with HER first before you buy something.
