Title: Anyone looking for a 408?
Post by: xjchad on April 26, 2019, 10:04:09 PM
I was browsing the local antique store at lunch today and found a beautiful little Mitchell 408 for $24.
It's in great cosmetic condition and seems to be mechanically as well.
I don't have the cash or I'd have snatched it up!
If anyone is interested, I'll pick it up for them, seems like a good deal?

I'll take it if you can get it for me — and pay you a commission, Chad.

Thanks,

Fred

Fred,
I'll go back over there on Monday.
If it's still there, I'll grab it for you!

Thanks, Chad — let me know, and I will send you $40 cash along with that South Bend line roller.

Best,

Fred
