[AT] Blue G 1000 tractor owner's list, etc.

[Gene Dotson]

    The G-1000 was built by the John Blue pump company. Originally in 
Laurinburg, North Carolina and later moved to Huntsville, Alabama..
    C. H. Wendel doesn't give any specs in the Standard Catalog of Farm 
Tractors.
    John Blue is still a major supplier to Farm machinery and sprayer 
manufacturers for fertilizer and chemical pumps.
