This is an update for those who are interested in this rusty old thing, and wish to share in my sense of anticipation in the matter. I noticed in the post of the invoice above that the S/N does not show up. It is#3406. Early commercials have 5 digits, does mean this one is among the first 4k ever built?

FFL sent, two postal money orders totaling $1311 mailed yesterday. First base is winning the lot, Third base will be when it arrives at the dealer's, and the rest of the baseball analogy is pretty much a no-brainer.

In the meantime, I'll orchestrate the permit thing--for which it will already be registered when it arrives--,the permit replacement--hopefully with a new, laundry-resistant feature--,picking up a LED light bulb I ordered online from WalMart--all of which happens in Watkins Glen, about twenty minutes from home. Since my Dakota will be in the "hospital" at some point asap for front brakes and bearings--a life-saving (mine) procedure--I'm cruising on faith that I can get Nellybelle fixed and get over there and return prepared, just in time to get her in hand, on arrival day.
