I am helping an old neighbor do a ranch cleanup and he has given my partner and I, an Allis Chalmers HD7, a BeGe scrapper and today I drug home a Towner 41G ripper. These hold significance to me because this trio was used to build an airport that I used to live on. 1946 Hobergs airport in Lake County. I love old equipment and having historical and personal history makes it all the better. I will bring the BeGe home next week if the weather hold. Its all fun. Grant.

Hi, GrantJ.

HMMMMMMMMMMM????????? WHERE are you gonna live when your current home is totally covered in antiques? LOL.

I should talk. I'd probably have more of a physical collection too if I hadn't chosen to live out my later years off grid.

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

I have 65 acres to clutter up even though my wife says "WHY". Because I can! Grant.

instead of perfection some times we just have to accept practicality
