I hope there are lots of buyers there.
It's a shame but seeing the remote location this sale is in I can see the scrap buyer getting a majority of this stuff.
There are tons of engines and parts that won't bring scrap iron prices. I've seen it before. Maybe the vehicles will go to buyers who will save them.

Those Larks are worth big bucks now! Used to see them (admittedly uusually rusty) for almost nothing. I'd rather have the 6-banger too. Stude trucks are really nice around the Bonus Built years.

speaking of auctions, I sent this link to my wife about a month and half ago Upcoming Auction Page of Fowlkes Realty & Auction and she said "Oh, GO! " I said what happened to my wife?? I mean ahh nevermind- Ok I'll go- twist my arm....

So I scheduled friday off work to go out, she wants a 4 door family car. I have my eye on a couple different options, She is really set on me bringing that 34 fordor home-but I'm not sure we can afford it?? I guess we'll see...

I would like to go to the one Roger posted since I could use some more truck parts but that weekend didn't work out, plus added another 4 hours? on.

I had a bunch of cash tucked away from selling parts etc for my 51 F1, looks like I may be spending it on the wifes car? if someting works out, if not it will still be fun.

later

anyone see anything here I should take a look at while there, it's this Saturday, I'll be online tommorrow night.

I only could see one 53-56 truck in the background of one pic!

Valentine, NE is beautiful country

I have visited Valentine several times for vacation. It is so quiet, inexpensive, and dry climate. It is a secret vacation spot for the outdoor loving folks. Love the river, lake, and water fall. If only I knew about the auction earlier! I only live 6 hours away! I have a couple old fords and a restored T that could use a few parts for the price of steel! Have the time, but I whacked a bale elevator with the inner/outer tie rods on my hauling truck last week and haven't got to fix in that yet!
