I am working on getting the tractors lined up for the HPOCA display at the Farm Progress Show at Alleman Iowa, August 31- Sept. 2, 2004. 

We are attempting to duplicate the Oliver display at the first Farm Progress Show held in Iowa in 1959 for the 45th anniversary. As of last night I had one of each of the 3 digit tractors coming. This morning my 550 owner had to drop out for health reasons. 

If you have a nice 550 that you would like put in our display and you live in Iowa or close by please email me at: 

[b:vktnyonl]sletten@kca.net. [/b:vktnyonl]

If you can send digital pictures as an attachment that would help. We have room for an early one with the straight bar grill and a later one with the checkerboard or egg-crate grill. We will consider Oliver or Cockshutt 550's. 

I will email you back with more details. 

Thanks for your help!
