[AJD] JD - Model "C"

[G.Dombaugh]

Thanks Bill and Dean.... and others...
I will email JR directly and most likely purchase the book....
I hate to bother you with all the work of scanning pictures here.  Thanks 
anyway.

I don't happen to have that book.... Ironically, if I had this book to begin 
with,
I would have known the JD "C" story ...  :-)   Most be the missing link that 
I needed.

I appreciate all the help from the LIST....
Thanks again to everyone.
Sincerely,
Garrell
KS
