Thank you, Richard, for taking us with you to the sale. It was interesting to see all the implements, not so new, and those collectibles that might go in a garden, painted, and no longer functional. My neighbor in Florida, who came from a farming background as many of us older folk did, had an old plow, cleaned up, painted, and sitting in a "place of distinction on a stone gravel altar" in the corner of his front yard. Makes you wonder if maybe it was something that had belonged to his dad that he couldn't part with... And, yes, I do agree that a "farming" get together is a great way to meet up with community and something that is so important in these times of isolation. So again, thank you, for taking us with you and for sharing. Looking forward to part 2.
6:20 Ransomes spud spinner/harvester , 8:03 perry loader/bale slave grab , just lifts bales on top of the trailer have to stack them before it and stack on trailer after it. 9:40 mconnel power arm with digger attachment could have them as a finger mower hedge cutter attachment and a cement mixer attachment
Hello from America . Love the videos. Harry is a wealth of knowledge about farming equipment.. This reminded me of Clarkson Farms videos . I have to thank you for pointing that out after the farm shop video. You have me binge watching the videos now. Keep up the great work!!!!!
The IH 523 hydro is a rare beast, 30 years ahead of its time! I had one and it was a good tractor but got hard to find spares. I saw a restored one make VERY strong money.
Absolutely loved this video, bought back so many memories, my Dad had an McCormick International 434 to use with scraper, trailer and dung spreader, quite often chain harrows and flat roller too, most jobs for the dairy herd he did, love the old International combine too
i have one of those tractors the international 374 great tractor till the hand break went last week with a full load of bales on the back lies on her side in the dich ( bugger)
Good day from Ontario Canada. I have a IH 574, great tractor but hard starters in winter without plugging them in. Interesting to see difrrerent things. Thanks I will try to watch 2nd one
I like the International's, last few farm auctions I went too every there was a group who for their fun just jacked up the bids for their fun of seeing you paying too much, I did tryed to bid on a single cambridge roller once for a small job but when I saw who was bidding against me with their mates grinning away, I stopped, only for him saying out loud " s#!t I'm stuck with it !!!! " and I grinned away thinking to myself serves you right !!! 😁👍
I work for an auctioneer/estate agents up here in the fens but we dont do many farm sales now I used to run our farm sales and this bought back many memories.Ive probably arranged hundreds of sales over the years. Hope there will be a burger van there. Oh there it is lol
It's a sad day. Any sales like this one in our town are held in the mart. Int 674 was first tractor i drove. My uncle showed me how to drive it in hay field. I was 10 our 12 at the time
Same for me.We used to cart silage in salop trailers pulled by the IH .Then it became the scraper tractor ,but the front wheel bearings didn’t last because of the slurry.I can’t remember where we sold it.
Now if they stuck "modern art" on the title of the sale surely it would of doubled the sale price at least. 😜😅. Nice weather sales also increases prices alot. Was there such a thing as a bargain there in your eyes? Thanks for letting us wander with you. Stay safe 🏴
Old rusty is king for yard art👍 just looking at an old disk harrow or hay rake in your front yard reminds you of long hours, years, seasons of hard back breaking toil. If all that old equipment could talk. It's not junk, but Junque🇬🇧🇺🇲👍
Very exciting!! I collect petrolenia, old Castrol, Shell oil cans etc.. Oh please buy Harry his first vintage tractor. He would quit school and work with it everyday, probable sleep in it. Oh please buy him a tractor, it will be the shinniest kit in the yard 👍🤣✌️👍😢👍👍🇺🇲 The farmer Fred is sad to be 72, 2 years older than me. Sad to see your life, your passion sold off, end of your era don't you know💚😢👍💔
@@lewiscartwright3609 if you don't mind working for someome, alot of big farms (8-10,000 acres) are always looking for helping around harvest and can maybe keep you on
OK thanks for letting me know and I don't mind working for someone else if it means giving my mum some peace and quiet then I will be willing to give it a go
You were at a farm that was selling machines that were long gone past their sell by date...not very interesting for buyers who want a modern machine at a good price.😪😪😪
