Well my wife and I attended the auction yesterday and had a good time. The 1665 combine went for $1000 dollars for those who were curious.

The 350 Case went for $900.

Any other inquiries on what sold for what and I think we can track down the prices. I snagged some Case plow parts for a decent price. Was an old Bantam army trailer I wanted to snag as well but there were more determined souls bidding on it than I wanted to compete with!

I had a whole bunch of harvest pictures I wanted to post on here however my old phone took a trip through the clothes washer the night I wanted to post them. Maybe with luck Ill still get the data off of it.

Met some fellow YTers and had some good conversations. Thanks everyone!

In lieu of my other photos I will post these instead:

I thought I recognized that person running the Case on the auger !!I enjoyed meeting you at the auction after watching you really try to own the Bantam trailer. I would have liked to be the high bidder and put it behind my 1953 Willys. I couldn't even get my hand up quick enough as you and the other guys were going at it !!!

Glad I was able to meet you. I will look around for the leftover VAC and 300 stuff that I have somewhere under the benches and I will be in touch. Also, I will try to get all my literature, manuals, collectibles etc back on the front burner.

It was a great day for an auction. I got a 4cyl. Mallory dual point distributor for a hot rod project, bid the Sioux valve grinder up way too high before losing and really couldn't touch the 1927 Chev chassis and engine with the other two bidders.

All in all a fun day.
 
It was great to meet you too. I figured that the other bidder on the Bantam really wanted it and that it wasnt worth more than $240 to me. It was in decent shape but the front was rusting pretty badly from water collection. I think I will build my own and get closer to what I want.

I attached a link to a Case manure spreader that would make a great trailer for my tractors but it is a fair ways away.

Shoot me an email or give me a call sometime when you get an inventory and we can work on things.

It was indeed a great day for an auction. The weather was very nice. I met several CASE people there including connor9988, Pastor John and many others. Not much of the stuff went for scrap as the CASE people were wanting it for their collections. Ben it was great to meet you and your wife. Always nice to put a face with a poster on yt. Send me a email about the club sometime and I will get back to you. Thanks. I believe the white 1070 sold for $5800. I do not know what the 800 sold for as I got to talking as they were selling it. The chopper sold for $400 and the auger wagon sold for around $450 I think.
 
Just so you guys know, I wasn't there but put in absentee bids and got the C and SC. So they wont be going to scrap. I'll post close up pictures when I get them home. I was busy and couldn't make it
