U really are not missing anything anymore. Most of the new owners or family members pick out anything worth anything and the stuff that is worth something now days sells for too much. The other opinion I hold by personal experiences is antiques that were antiques even just 20 years ago are in really rough shape these days and partly because alotta ppl lose their own value in the stuff and don't maintain it. A friend just recently dragged me to a place where an old widow was selling stuff on her own and thought an old 70s Dodge pickup that was on its way out was worth $3,500 from what guys like my nitwit pal were feeding her was dreams of grandjure. What could have been something really worth cash was a 69 Fairlane with a 289 in it that motor was in really nice shape but that car was also left outside 4 ever and it was really rusted and it didn't have a straight piece or panel on it. The car looked like some drunk played bumper cars with it daily for the last 50 some years. She wanted 2K for that. I just told em I am really broke which I am thru medical bills but thank god I still have my brains and will to resist having friends swindle me... Just my opinion ok...

Most all of these vehicles ( except for a couple of the cars ) were just used-up farm equipment. During the time that this stuff sat out at that farm stead, nobody gave much thought to it or found it desirable. Silas has found his own niche and found buyers for the art aspect. The whole idea of trying to restore or refurbish this used-up equipment is a relatively new idea. The old farmers kept old equipment in hopes of finding a use for it at a later time.
