[AT] Cold day for an auction

[Ralph Goff]

October is always a gamble for auction sale weather. Today turned out to 
be a colder than normal one at temperatures around the freezing mark, 
brisk northwest wind and the occasional snowflake. Good thing it was not 
a long sale and they did move along fairly quickly.
Some of the old iron there included
DC4 Case, complete but seized for $225
9N Ford with remains of a front end loader in pretty rough shape for 
around the $300 mark. Not running and no sheet metal on this one.
This complete 444 Massey Harris not running for $300.

Anybody ever seen a sporty looking Volvo like this 1964 P1800? Rusty and 
not running, it appeared that generations of mice had lived and died in 
it but at least two people wanted it and the car sold for $500.

I came away cold and empty handed and stopped in at another auction 
(indoor this time) . Not a bad way to spend a Saturday.
