Ok here is one from the opposite end of the scale... I have owned for the
past 16-1/2 years CF58310UO -- 19th last one made. Built on Jul 14, 1976 --
the very last day of production. Oh yeah... it runs like a top.
The only later one I have heard of (let alone seen) is the last one owned by
I think Bob Tulius. If anyone on the list has a later one than mine I'd sure
like to hear about it.
Cheers.
