Hot Rods Farm full of old cars and trucks-mostly Fords

One of my favorite old buddies in the world passed away recently. He was not a hoarder and was actively buying, selling, and parting out great parts and sending them all over to grateful customers nationwide. He was a long time vendor at big swap meets like Hershey, Carlisle, and other big venues. In recent years his heart condition kept him closer to home. Always gave me lots of free advice and sold me alot of cool stuff over the years. Anyway today I went to visit his wife who also a good friend and favorite person of mine. She will decide soon whether to have an auction or not. She has asked me to help. Too early to tell but an auction is certainly possible. I am posting some photos of some of the outdoor items for you guys and gals to see. There are some very cool and rare items inside the many buildings but this will give you a good idea. He was fond of Fords and not so much of Chevy but you will find a few. <center>

wow looks very similar to a place i was at this weekend with tons of model a and t stuff !

 

Well, there's the IHC truck I want. I'd bet the FTE crowd would be interested as well.

Sorry to hear of the circumstances involved, too.

 

My condolences on the loss of your friend. Looks like a lot of stuff there, hope the economy does not sour an aution and relinquish it all to the crusher.

Good luck.

 

I wish my back yard would look like that!

 

Catalog it...website.
You can have a form to send email to you with questions about various cars and or parts.

 

I need some 50 Ford fenders out of that pile.

 

Its all got to go somewhere, better that than the crusher.

 

Thank you. Our economy is not all that bad here and so far the auctions have yielded very high prices. Never know for sure.

 

Sorry about your buddy, looks like he definately liked his old trucks! Gotta respect a guy like that.

 

This picture needed fixing...



Sorry for the loss of your friend. I think it'll be a great auction.

 

sorry for the loss of your friend , but damn what a collection , with something this large like stevie G said , catalog it on a website..

 

sorry for the loss....
There seems to be a few pieces of metal i need in there. i would like to know more of what will be happening with these parts. thanks.

 

My condolences on the loss of your friend.

 

Hey man, I am sorry to hear about your mate passing. My condolences.
Doc.

 

Sorry about your friend. He was a very busy beaver!

 

Thank you guys. I appreciate it.

 

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend ....hard to find good ones now a days ....wished I were closer to you guys I'd buy up a cab or two just for safe keeping......I am sure she will do well since she has your help and no one will be able to buffalo her ........

 

You should try to work out a deal with the widow; for a percentage, you catalog and internet some of the stuff. Maybe make more complete packages; Put all those doors back on the lot of doorless pickup cabs and you'd net a better overall price than auctioning doorless cabs and pairs of doors in an auction. Same possibly for grouping hoods with front fenders for front clips.

 

looks like he led a fun life of doing what he loved. The good part is, most of his parts are going to go to guys who had the same passion. I don't think I've seen that many AD chevy parts piled up like that before

 

Are those headlights stock on that Buick? Looks like a 51 Roadmaster???

 

That is very sad to hear. I bought a few parts off him over the years, they would even stop by to drop off the parts I wanted on there way to swap meets to save me from driving to the swap meet.

 

I need some F1 fenders and that Victoria, I will haul them away

 

Sorry to hear about the loss. Is there a drivers door for a 35-37 Ford pickup. I am still trying to locate 1 for a buddy's fathers truck.

 

Wow, your buddy was quite the collector

 

Give us a heads-up on the auction... I'm looking for a Magic Air heater setup or radio for a '48 - '50 Ford pickup...

Sorry to hear , I hope that stuff finds a good home.

 

Sorry about your friend passing, that's rough. Good that you are helping her out....

sent you a pm!!

Later, Doug
