    Indeed. It would need electric and a kitchen and a shower and a parts washer and heat and air conditioning too and good lighting is a must.
    Well, I finished the Minnesota H today. It came out really nice.

    Wow, Thank you all for the kind words. It was in good condition to start with and that helps the restoration process immensely. The parlor cabinet it came in is in excellent condition too. This pretty lady might be a gift to some very good friends of mine that closed on a Victorian house yesterday. I think it would be perfect for them.

    Grant, I have never seen a Minnesota with decals in that pristine of a condition. You always do such a wonderful job cleaning up/restoring these machines too, but that machine is unbelievably nice. Beautiful job, beautiful machine. The people you give that machine too are going to love it.
