[AT] Case 995

[Cecil Bearden]

Several models of Aston Martin used David Brown's initials as he owned 
the company.   Wikipedia has a good discussion on the company.   I 
worked on some of the David Brown tractors that were built during the 
Tenneco purchase.   We had a 1200 that the factory forgot to install the 
main PTO power shaft.   It took over 4 months to get the shaft from 
England....  No internet back then,   A bunch of money was spent on 
overseas phone calls.
