Ryan:
Does you Dad still have the green 140?
It will be nice to see the 170 at OSH.
It looks really nice.

RED was offered as an exterior color EVERY YEAR the 170 was produced! (Unlike Green, which was offered only 5 out of 8 years.... Guess it was a S L O W seller.)

Or they couldn't keep enough GREEN paint in stock as it flew out the door.

It's good to know that Joe Harris is still around...

Hi Dan,
Yea, my dad still has the 140. We hope to get it "finished" before we dive too far into the 170, so it may be a couple years before the 170 makes it out to Oshkosh. She'll be there some day though.
