    Merlin is now in the history books as putting the iconic mail machine & lovely mannequin (& bag) in the town museum.
    What a piece of work that little machine is & it fits so nicely in the hall where it landed. Merlin spent days prepping the aged fire engine (months ago) preserving that piece of history, and with this act shows again, how much he cares about his community & the unit (that he brought back to life). Such a worthwhile endeavor that will greatly enhance public museum visits in his town.

    Our family has one of these. Its restored but painted in our locsl high school colors and mastcot logos. Father-in-law passed away four months ago. Not sure what we'll do with it now. I should get it started up again this summer and put it back in our annual village parade. In honor of my Father-in-law. Great man, everyone knew him and his Cavmobile. Named for the Coldwater, Ohio Cavaliers.
