ebinmaine 78,910 #2 Posted 5 hours ago This is how Trina and I expanded our collection quite a lot a few years ago. I rented a 26 ft U-Haul which we filled. Then went back several times with our own utility trailer. I have since sold / given away / traded most of those items to other folks. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 25,317 #3 Posted 2 hours ago I would love to find a haul like that to make! Of course it’s sad that someone has to pass to make that happen. Circle of life I guess. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 46,609 #4 Posted 1 hour ago I had the chance to do the same a couple of times. I didn't have the thousands of dollars to invest that the people thought it was worth. Managed to pick up a tractor, snow blower, deck and grader blade like 3 years ago but that's about it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

76c12091520h 4,164 #6 Posted 20 minutes ago TRIP 2 consisted of some NOS parts, buckets of used parts, numerous Kohlers, and some more tractors including some little tractor with some kind of cutting attachment on the front of it. Not sure if that's worth anything or not? Best part is that it was 2 tenths of a mile from my house. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
