I was at the auction the day you bought it. He was a great old guy Graham Smith Bodwell. I used to stop to talk with him, everything at his place came with an interesting story. I believe he bought the power wagon from the electrical contractor he worked for and used it to drag home the electric poles he sawed up to build his house. I have a WWI Jenny propeller that used to hang in his house up in my office and a sign in my living room that came from his barn. He would be happy to see it on the road. His family history and a few stories about him can be found at this link.
