Howdy everyone. I have some things around the place that can sell, since we are trying to clean up and we have no use for them. The first is a Minneapolis Moline combine, called a Uniharvestor. I do not know the value of it, or how rare it is, but I figured that is is certainly worth something to someone. Also, we have a 1946 Ford truck with a flathead V8, as well as a "Rock Island" corn planter. My father and I decided that these might be worth more than a hole-filler or a scrap metal pile, But I would like to find a good place to advertise and sell them.

I have given some thought to trying to dump these things on Ebay, but I question whether this will be the best place to get attention from prospective buyers.

 

You could try our Classifieds.

 

Post em on yesterdaystractors. I think the addy is yesterdaystractors.com , but not 100%, since I haven't been there in a coons age. Bet you'll get some takers on there!

 

Exactly how long IS a coons age?

 

14-17 years, in captivity.

Depends on how long it takes me to shoulder my rifle and put the sights on him.

 

You say you have an unwanted combine?

 

Heard about those combine demo derbys! It'd be fun and I'd love to compete in one, but there are none around here. Anyway, the combine is a little too small, and too much of an antique.

 

I would think both of the items you listed might be of interest to a collector if not priced beyond reason. I enjoy reading http://www.ytmag.com . They have classifieds that cost nothing (I think) without pics or a pic listing, not sure of costs there. Im sure if you take the time to advertise someone will turn up looking for something like this, just give it time.
