He was in Northampton, Mass raising organic beef and pork.  Cool story.  riding a horse herding his cattle. Learned how by reading a book(s).  


I've not spoken with him in a while, but why not call him if you want to chat.


Anyone looking for used parts can give me a em from my profile. I"ve got a two car garage that I can barely get into.

The last correspondence I had from him was several years ago.  He had moved to that farm somewhere in the Berkshires.  I believe the last part I bought from him was a boot lid for our '72 Spitfire.  That was probably more than 5 years ago.

I heard he met a younger woman who is into organic farming. He was answering calls and emails till a couple of years ago now. I'd love to go up with a truck and empty trailer. Thing is I'm thinking about selling off all my mini stuff and down sizing the shop. I dropped by my storage unit sunday. It is only 500 sq ft. and the unit next to it had 4 guys working for all they were worth. Four guys in 500 sq ft and me wandering around in 5500 sq ft. In my defense I do have 7 cars mostly minis in my 500 sq ft storage. Steve (CTR)

I hope he sleeps with his wallet under his pillow - LOL

Big AL

good question?/ I heard he had bought a farm and was raising cows.. later bc

I bought a bunch of parts from Cosimo Ferrante at Madhouse Minis a number of years ago and he had one of the most massive collections of parts and classic minis in various states of repair that I have ever seen. I'd love to know what happened to the collection and if any of it is still around for sale. Thanks!
