Finding something that old would cause all my circuits to short out! Looks to be in great shape. I hope you find many more like it! Good luck and keep swinging!

Could be because America isn't that old?

And Jimmie......do you really have hot summers in the UK? What do you consider "hot?" It has been hovering around 100 degrees F for over a week here in Texas and the humidity is high.....we have 'air you can wear.' I bet you are glad you got back out.....that's an amazing find!!! Congrats!!!
