i thought i posted this sthis morning but i guess not so here we go, does this wagon hoist have any value at all or should i just scrap it when i scrap the bin behind it?

Probably scrap at this point - we just don"t lift wagons anymore. Everything is pretty much self unloaders, and gravity boxes.
 
Unless somebody wanted it at a show ground or something. Maybe to dump a barge type wagon of ear corn in to an elevator feeding a sheller?
 
Could have some value. I haven't seen one used in the last 50 years. I see the tumbling rod but no knuckles.
 
They are kind of a novelty. Someone would probably like it for their collection. We quit using one for our club picking day as the wagons would be different sizes and it was always placed wrong. Now we use a boom truck to raise the wagons.
 
Hey Ben, is it all there?
Kevin Larky hosts Walnut corn picking days in Walnut IL. Had some trouble with the hyd. lift on the one he has. Might be interested in yours..
I thinl my e-mail is open.
 
Around here about 2 years ago one like yours working, not fixed up, all rusty sold for about $2500 at a auction.

i wouldnt dream of asking that kind of money for it, if someone was interested in it for corn picker days or a farm heritage show thats where it should go. maybe i'll post it in the classifieds
 
I may be interested if nobody else takes it. Seems like a shame to scrap anything that was once so important for farming. Could use it for lifting mower decks or something (using blocks, of course).
