Saw this on eBay today:

I've not seen a "CG Conn Ltd" bell on a 62h before. Is that common?

They made a few in Abilene, unless I'm mistaken. Just not for long.

Must be one of the last ones made. I've never seen one with that particular engraving either.

Like Burgerbob said they definitely made some in Abilene.

Yeah, I knew they had but I always imagined they were manufactured there with Elkhart parts since I had never seen one with this bell engraving. Interesting.
