[AT] Case 995

[Cecil Bearden]

There is a collector club, on facebook: 
https://www.facebook.com/David-Brown-Tractor-125157034227228/

I would call All States Ag Parts if  you are just trying to get rid of 
it.   I am sure it would bring $500 - $1000 on craigslist if you leave 
the tires on.  Without the wheels, most people on craigslist will not bite.
