Today I had my choice of about 12-15 farm sales within driving distance....As lousy as I felt I should have just stayed at home but I went to one located 17 miles straight west of me..It was a strange sale as the highest selling thing was a New Holland manure spreader that sold for $3,000..Most of the stuff hadn't been used in over 5 years and hadn't had the best of care..Most of the implements sold for $100-500 each....The sale started at 10 am and was over at 12 noon...Lots of the smaller stuff stored in a grain bin had been stolen by a nearby druggie..
1-TR-85 New Holland combine with 20 ft flex head...Had new 28Lx 26 rice drive tires---$2300---Last ran 3 years ago....The scrap dealer was runner up...The neighbors said it didn't have alot of hours..
2-1566 IH rough and not running---$2200----He used to also have a Steiger 4WD,1206 Farmall, and a FWA 706 IH with an 856 engine...They were sold about 4-5 years ago..
3-930 Case diesel not running----$775----went for scrap---had one new 18.4x34 rear tire...
4-MM 445 ? Industrial tractor with loader----$500
5-D-7 Cat-----$1,000----went for scrap----seller had bought it running 5-6 years ago and paid lots more....It wasn't in that bad of shape..
6-7000 JD 6 row planter----$700
7-Caldwell V-Ripper---$300
8-Pallet of mostly 100 lb IH front weights-----$475----friend got them
9-Two never used military 290 Cummins engines----$425 for the left one and $350 for the one on the right--a friend got the left one to have a spare for his Steiger..
10-Look what the pack rats did to this Ford pickup...They have a problem with them in that area..
Next Saturday I hope to be in northeast Oklahoma for a sale..
