Brian, that sled is owned by Tim Spieglehof (sp) from northern Illinois.

Sledneck, I repop Dator hoods if you need one.

Yeah, like Joe said, he re-pops Dator hoods and I see that Tasky is selling a re-pop one right now as well on VSCA.
Here is his info.

Phone: 218-729-8031

Reproduction John Deere Liquidator Hood. It can be picked up in Duluth at the Twin Ports Vintage Fest. However arrangements must be made in advance. $350

Thanks for the info guys but I'm in MA, and I bet shipping will cost a pretty penny as well. I may have one available in New Hampshire will keep posted. Thanks, jim

Jim,

You can actually ship by Greyhound pretty reasonable. Tasky should have a terminal in Duluth...maybe...

If not, I can get one to the Albany, NY area over the holidays.
