                 Thanks to everyone that replied. I wasn't looking to buy
it. I was just gonna move there and
was surprised to see one in that small of a town.  There is also another
town called Hardy, a population
of less than 1,000, that has a small car museum they say the have something
from a 1908 sears runabout
to an '81 Delorean.  Don't know anything other than that about it.
