[Farmall] nuisance

[69barracuda at mchsi.com]

Well if they ever do get out here they will certainly be busy...I think I can 
count the number of propertys out here (larger than 1/2 acre) with NO 
inoperable vehicles on one hand.

I can however count several places that have tons of trash and real junk laying 
around....Karls certainly is not one of them!
