As a young adult it would be awesome to walk around a property like this with older folks learning what everything is/was. That’s history that’s fading away

This is like going to a museum. 55 Chevy, my boyfriends first car. Thanks for taking me down memory lane. 🥰

This is so interesting, and yet kinda sad ! I would like to be a part of a clean up like this before the lord calls me home ! Most people want to travel or experience some exotic adventure, but this is what I would like to do. Maybe see if I could get some piece of history going again . I know I am strange and this is not most people’s cup of tea , but there is much value here and not just financial.

I as well have seen some sawdust in my time of 73 years. I remember things said about different antique rigs an how some are like one of maybe only ten and parts of history just lost forever. Why don't they clear a strip of land there in front and drag carefully some of the more worthy which is all of mostly if I were the judge/lol. I never got to see much of the carolina's as I was born there but moved away when eight so not too many memories... just the orphanage. Living in alaska has some of the finest benefits but its hard to go stateside and go through those airports. Then being a cripple don't help either so no going home for me

Old aesthetics it's so cool and beautiful. Back then you could use car parts as decorations due to the influence of Art Deco and Art Nouveau in industrial stuff

Neat spot. Lots of history there. I love walking places like this. Avery, Trackson... lots of equipment names lost in time. It was kind of relaxing listening to the footsteps crunching the leaves!

@ 3:93 is an old hay loader. Pulled with a team, with a hay rack behind, you would pick up loose hay to store in the barn. @ 5:19 they wouldn't run those in tandem. The fist one is set up for chopping hay, the second is for chopping corn. 2 different crops. Having 2 machines, just saved having to switch heads back and forth.

Exactly! Sometimes wonder why such vehicles and equipment just rest there when the owner could easily put all that for sale in a win win scenario: buyer with resources can restore the vehicle to it former glory and seller can make money and know new owner will take care of his never ended projects.

My dad was born in 1913 and his first real job was pulling a grader with a caterpillar in New Madrid County. Another guy rode the grader and made adjustments. Men were a lot tougher than today. He farmed with mules and later drove trucks. I remember the first one he got with power steering and brakes. When he brought the first car home without an optional hand crank, he wanted to take it back.My three brothers and mom replaced the crank and just bump started it when needed.

That 55 hardtop at the end needs to be in my garage.

After watching several of your videos I’ve yet to see one item I’d like to own. It’s just someone else’s junk I don’t need. I do find satisfaction seeing you cleanup the country side!

Man that 55 Chevy is the thing I dream of finding some day!

That's an Avery threshing machine should be donated to your local tractor club were they could get it running again to demonstrate Avery case john deere there were all different manufacturers of them!! Sad if your going to junk it musem peice!

I'm on the lookout for old army half-tracks and parts. It was common to find them repurposed for farm use so some are still around on the old farmsteads.

I sure could get the I wants there. There's a lot of money sitting there.

A Farms not complete until you got an old GMC long bed on it

I hope like hell that GMC dump truck, the pull behind no.12 grader, and that Willys jeep didn't go to the scrapyard. I know it's your job and you can't save it all but hope that y'all try and advertise the stuff before scrapping it. I don't know what to say. Hate to see it just scrapped but what can you do with it if you can't sell it directly. Pile it up at your house for someone to have to do the same thing you are now. That one yellow cable bucket machine was a traxcavator being the first type of track loader that cat built. They bought out Trackson soon as they seen this. So hope that didn't get scrapped cause it was in better shape than most of the other stuff. Oh I'd have had a heart attack seeing all that going to the scrapyard.

You got alot of money sitting there in old farm equipment I'd love to have and restore alot of it

It always blows my mind how people just parked stuff in the 50s and 60s. Even if it's for junk price I need to sell the old tractor to before I can have money to buy the next one. Alot of that stuff had value when it was parked. Most of it is pretty much worthless now.

Need to do a "cold start" on the yellow grader. Lol

I like how everything‘s announced as “old” like there’s anything else there

To bad the previous owner hoarded them to rot into non existence.

wholy jumpin ham sandwich much respect to farmers.wow im guessing a few generations of family now the end looks like it anyways.be safe good job here.

A lot of people that are looking for parts that are hard to find would make you an offer on the John Deere equipment that you have, and where is this place located?

You loosen the bolts (one wheel at a time) and drive in a tight circle. The direction you travel determines weather the wheel moves in or out.
