Same old, same old recycled treasures

I'm doing a small yard celan up on the Village outskirts, 3/4 of a mile from home.Used the new loader to bring hiome the John Deere riding mower and two tillers then another couple of trips for electric motors.

This afternoon filled the pick up truck with aluminum pots and pans, cool weed burner, some small vintage gasoline egines Iron Horse, Clinton, Power Products.

And the best part is that I've hardly put a dent into the yard scrap. There's a two bottom horse drawn plow and a disk that will sell to the Amish.

Sitting onto of the Gurney wood heat the thingy with the round ball, actuall has three. This is an old governor from a steam engine, the tank with the pressure guage is a weed burner.

Nice stack of old license plates from the 1930's

An old car frame with wire spoked wheels, once I figure out what make of car it was the rims should bring in some extra cash.



Some of this scrap I'm going to have to work my butt off, trees have grown through the frames of the equiment.

that is great, it would take me all of about 5 minutes to sell all of that.lets see more pics of the cool things as you uncover more.

That John Deere looks like some yard art...LOL

I bet you'd make a killing on ebay with all of that old stuff. You've got to give it a shot, if not ebay, at least Craigslist. If you were close, I'd buy those gas engines and the tillers. What state are you in?

I'm no stranger to eBay, been selling there since June of 1998, sold everything from dryer lint for making paper, Pez the 6 ft display clown loaded with vintage inventory, when I purchased the clown, hand carved wooden carosel horse, gold and silver bullion plus much more than I care to remeber.

Vintage cameras are my favorit, 2nd WWII radios, 3rd old car parts then tractor parts with old engines coming in last. Sometimes I will disasemble an engine to sell as parts because shipping from Canada is prohibitive cost wise.

I could give you pages upon pages of things I sell on ebay.
