Ida and I were both "born" in 1951. :-) I was so pleased that she did so well....she just purred along!!
Janice, this is awesome, I am happy for you, also. I have been eye-balling a 301 at my local SMRshop, just can't swing right now. But, I will get one.
I just love mine!! And I got so many compliments on her and people interested in her. Many of them had never seen a 301, and several asked "What kind of Featherweight is that". :thumbup:
