[AT] Cold day for an auction

[Rob Wilson]

Ralph,
 My buddy always says "there's a arse for every seat" and this proves it.
This is a two seat car right :)

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.

Ralph in Sask.
