1Opinion of the Court

MARTIN, Judge.

This appeal presents four questions. First, did the trial court err in not granting defendant’s motion for involuntary dismissal at the close of the plaintiffs evidence? Second, did the court err in finding that the option to purchase the crane had not been exercised? Third, did the court err in finding defendant personally liable for the conversion of the crane? And fourth, did the court err in its determination of the fair market value of the crane at the time of conversion? We answer each of these questions negatively, and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
