I had always admired the Cletrac model 55, as it resembled a smaller version of the mighty CLetrac 100. Not expecting that any of these machines would be located in a reasonably close vicinity in eastern Pennsylvania, I sort of filed the thought away for the moment.
Sometime early in 2002 , we had an Oliver HG-42 for sale. An interested gentleman from Somerset, PA came and bought it from us. We were supposed to deliver it when we had something headed in that direction. This gentleman mentioned that he saw a Cletrac 55 for sale in an Auto Locater paper in his area. I asked him to call me with the person's phone number, which he did. I then put a call thru to this individual and yes he had a Cletrac 55 for sale and basically convinced me that this was indeed the real thing.
