[AT] The Le Sueur, MN swap meet

I arrived early Friday and was hungry before 11 - no lines to wait in at that time :-)

I found a reproduction exhaust pipe for my unstyled long-frame JD B.  It cost me $40, but I've seen 'em for $75 and I didn't find another at the show.  I'm sure they were there, but it's impossible to cover everything.  I also found a nice used 12.4x36 tire that set me back $65.  My Gramps JD AW (http://oldtractors.homestead.com/JDAW.html) is in desparate need of one of those.  It took me 3 years to find a used tire for the other side, and this time it took me about 30 minutes into the swap to find this one.  I was really fortunate!  I also purchased a nice Winchester Model 67 single-shot bolt-action .22!  I've always wanted one like that and couldn't pass it up when I found it.  Turned out to be a good day for me!
