A year or more back I posted on this board for information on some Cat toolbars and brackets that my dad had farmed with. I got much info from several people. Several were interested in buying the brackets, gauge wheels, complete toolbars, and/or the pile of D2 engine parts (including and oil pan and front spring, two heads, many small engine and fuel system parts, and other items.)
Not a huge amount of money involved, but because the items were part of an estate, I could not get decisions from family members to sell or not.
We now want to sell this stuff and move it out. Rather than go ebay (which is probably more exposure and brings more money, but it is ebay and paypal costs and hassles.....) I would rather see them go to some enthusiasts who contribute and make this board work.
I would prefer to have one offer for all parts to one buyer, but will split up if that is more advantageous to the family.
Also have a vintage 1924 Buick power unit, 1930's Kohler gen set and some other 1920's and 1930's items.
Everything located SW Minnesota near Pipestone MN/Souix Falls SD.
I don't have emails for any of the people that contacted me. Anyone interested, please write me for a complete list of all items and pictures, and we can go from there.
