While at my friends house today,we walked over to see his neighbor. He is a young fellow about 30, I was talking to him about the tractor site,and asked him if I could take some pictures for the site,so here they are!
He was glad I told him the can he had over the exhaust on his farmall fell off.

That is a lot of treasures hiding there. Don't think I'd live long enough to try to restore them all, but its worth a try.

Another guy who buys stuff drags it home parks it out back and lets it rust. Some people have money than brains.

Ran when parked would be a common theme there... Neat collection though |

OMG! I would probably still be there running around saying, "Hey, c'mere and lookit this!" The guy needs to sell some of the stuff so he can get money to restore some of the other. The Volkswagen Karmann Ghia and the Volkswagen "Thing" are very collectible. Thanks for posting, Larry, although I become very nostalgic when I see such. |

Is that an MF70 backhoe or it's big brother the MF80? They were good big machines. My former neighbor had a couple MF70's, about 18,500lbs. |

I would like to have one of the VW tucks, or the dune buggy, or maybe the Karmann Ghia. |

Like the cub, the crawler, the red van/truck and the rusty El Camino/Ranchero (whatever it is - rusty is always good). |
