JimD 3,345 #1 Posted July 29, 2017 This August 24th I will be having an auction at my home in Garrettsville, Ohio at 5pm. I am selling a lot of my tools that I am no longer gong to be able to use. I'm also downsizing my collection of tractors from four to two I will be selling my C85 with the transplanted Oh140 Tecumseh and my 68 Commando 8. The Commando is torn down and has been power washed in preparation for a restoration that I am unable to complete. I have everything for this tractor The C85 has a snow plow on it and will be sold as a unit. I also have some decks for this and other models. Some are complete and some are shells that need finished. I know most of you can't possibly attend but I thought I would post this for those members in the area and anyone who would like to come. If you do come I would be most pleased to meet any or all of you. I will be easily identifiable as I will be the guy crying his eyes out on the sidelines. Ha ha, just kidding folks. I will admit that it's going to be a sad day for me but I recognize that it's time to let go. I hope some of you can attend. It would be nice to meet some more members. Thanks for your kind attention. ( Sorry for posting this in the wrong section. I forgot where I was when the light bulb came on to post this) 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 51,656 #2 Posted July 29, 2017 Jim, that is a sad day we will all have to face sooner or later. I know I already have too many toys, but can't resist picking up another 953 when I find one. Too far away for me but hope to be able to meet you some day. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,229 #3 Posted July 30, 2017 We are all getting to that point Jim. When my Dad passed, it fell to me to sort out all the stuff he had amassed. It took me over 2 years to get through it all. It is much better if you do it yourself. Wish I was closer Mate. How about some pictures. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 38,916 #5 Posted July 30, 2017 4 1/2 hrs. from me. If I didn't have so much going on this month already I'd do it. I'd stop in Buffalo and stay with my son for a couple of nights to break up the trip. Hope you have a good day for it. Aug 24th was my Mom's Birthday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
