Then the normal stuff rear wheel set $300, CARB $200, Dist.$150, Good nose $350, Tank sheet metal $250, Battery box seat assembly $100, Starter $150, And that is on the move it quick price end.I wish I was younger.I would head west of the Mississippi.

[@charlesatwell6658]

Must have been a Farmall crowd! Those would have been worth at least 3 times that much most times!

[@dcw1540]

Good four you that 70 will be a good one.❤

[@brianandlindafairchild1237]

My dad had a 50,60,and 70 at one time. 60 years ago.

[@Military-Museum-LP]

I am shocked on the selling prices of all the JD’s!! I’m glad I wasn’t there I would have bought ALL of them…

[@sallybrokaw6124]

And one 520 had front weights! AL.

[@lestermiller4703]

I was pretty surprised, too, at the antique tractor prices. Pretty cheap for the condition.

[@benweber9185]

That ain't no kidding!! Less than scrap price. It's sad

[@briangunter4038]

U stole that 70 congratulations Mr goodpliers u rock your first jd u got a great won running conditions worth about 3500 to 5000

[@oldschool6345]

The 520's and the 70 went for less than half of what we'd see around us here. Less than a quarter on a strong auction day. That's as is. You got a great deal on the 70. They like the gas though lol. The 70 in diesel form around here is 4k all day same condition. Thanks for sharing

[@greggpaul8053]

Those were gifts! Nice buys!!

[@billyhord4508]

Great start to your tractor collection. Nothing runs like a Deere. Like the pickup also.

[@chuckwilliams9090]

Any of those John deers that would start would have been a great buy lots of money could have been made.

[@georgeweisbrod1876]

The 150 p/u was advertised as "Heavy Half". And yes you were right about the key weight. I asked my uncle who retired from Ford's proving ground in Arizona as test engineer.

[@S36542]

Tractors are awesome 👌

[@daveharris7734]

You steering the Deer was a flash back to my first operating a motorized contraption in the early 60s.

[@maxineferguson9696]

That Yamaha would have been called a street scrambler back in the day.

[@rogerringer7066]

The successor of the MT was the 40 and then 420. 520 is the successor of the B, then 50.

[@roberteyres424]

Thanks for another interesting and great video. Couple of great buy’s. Joe will be happy I am sure. Cheers

[@anvil49]

Thanks for watching the bike sell.

[@timhanson2080]

I think it's a good buy on both.👍

[@justinblain928]

The front weights on the 520 are 1500 alone

[@Military-Museum-LP]

You know it’s cold when the Mennonites put on a stocking cap!

[@sallybrokaw6124]

MT steering column is telescopic. Same engine sheetmetal and some of the drivetrain used in the MC crawler version. AL.

[@doubledf100]

The ford bullnose 1980 and 1981 had the Swiss cheese frame. I heard they stopped because using them because of bending and cracking easily. Good old trucks that are starting to fetch good money now.

[@patdesrosiers6423]

Definitely a collectible that can still work

[@sallybrokaw6124]

70 JD more common to see narrow front wheels. 520's were gas guzzlers told to me by a farmer who had one. Dirt cheap price also. Shoulda been 2 grand range. AL.

[@richardmead9225]

MT is a vertical 2 cyl, the A, 520 etc is a horizontal 2 cyl.

[@richarddevito7711]

Some good buys in Kansas; the Ford pickup must have been a factory lightweight with that frame; it has the New Process 435 granny tranny, the best trans ever installed in a half ton, probably worth the price of the truck to somebody who wants one!

[@jefnf]

Almost everything sells cheaper in Kansas. Better place to buy rather than trying to sell at a show

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-2025]

Aluminum keys from Ford is what they did. Great point it would save money on shipping boxes of blanks. Plus somebody have to fix it when they twisted off in the ignition switch. Later seventies early eighties they use them in many of the full-size cars and trucks and vans. Another bad thing is when you lose them you can't go use your metal detector to find them. Great purchase on the tractor.

[@patdesrosiers6423]

Excellent score on the JD 70 couldn’t leave it there for that price. Nice truck also; my Denver 87 Ranger was lots more rusty when I sold it

[@benroosa2328]

I bought an 1980 f150 from my dad back in 95 that was a good truck hope yours turns out to be that way as well

[@j.w.groves2199]

You should have bought all of them in ky. And TN. Those things would have sold for 9 or 10 times what they brought there I just sat here and cried wishing I had been there buying at that auction.

[@davidbarrus6542]

Keep up the good work. You rock

[@marcbeebe]

You can do a lot worse than a JD 70 tractor! Fine machines and yes that price is about what a couple of used rear tyres go for.

[@alanh1406]

Good picks.

[@haffrods7055]

I enjoy these videos Tim. I would like to know what your coolest find has ever been to date from an auction. Something you bought and also didn't buy.

[@craig1974]

When i was a young lad out of high school in 1994 you could score a nice used box full sized GM wagon with decent miles for 8 to 10 grand at a dealer. Now its insane how much they are selling for.

[@Steverinomeister]

Believe it or not that little Yamaha is a street bike. The clue is in the street tread tires and the front fender that is mounted very tight to the tire. I find those tractors very interesting. I’d like to know more about them like the year of manufacture and why some have a wide front track verses narrow.

[@patdesrosiers6423]

Similar engine setup to a Harley Sprint

[@michaelmanculich4004]

If u want to sell it let me know, I'll give you twice what u paid for it

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

I'd say you got a great deal on that 80 F150 and JD 70!!

[@Military-Museum-LP]

Wow the Yamaha went for a crazy price!! It’s rare. It’s original but it’s not one of the most collectible model such as a DT.

[@brendamcdaniel1958]

Spark plug wire and it might run be careful on that thing. Thanks

[@sallybrokaw6124]

Seed hoppers on planter look like International Harvester. AL B.

[@johnellis8480]

The John Deere silo filler is used to put silage into an upright silo, using the tubes next to the blower.

[@johnellis8480]

I'm not a Deere guy but would have bid on all of them, they went real cheap, the Ford PU was a deal too. I'm curious what the farm machinery brought, looks like it was a buyers sale except for the Yamaha. I bought one similar to it with 800 miles on it, I think I paid $700 for it, which, at the time, 10 years ago I thought was too high. I had a Yamaha 80 in high school, 55+ years ago, fun bike! I suspect the price on the tractors would have been higher if Crazy Dave had attended.

[@Military-Museum-LP]

What did the saddles sell for?

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

I think the highest was $150

[@Onemattressatatime]

Love the bike

[@jeffmayo5283]

Ive been waiting for another GoodPliers video/auction. Im not a ford guy ,but the truck was a sweet deal even before I saw the GrandMa Trannmission!

Looked like a ghost town auction. Must not have been much advertising done.

[@variousvisfineart]

Tractor in every language is tractor. Most roll the "r" though.

[@denislandry7577]

Good scores ! Lol

[@davewhittles]

i always wondered about those tractors with close wheels would be very unstable

[@charlesatwell6658]

Not too bad if you have the rear wheels set out wide. I live in hilly SW VA. and still use them for raking, tedding, and other small jobs on our beef farm.

[@DAVIDZ-vk4yv]

if i had a way to get there and a way to haul back i would of bought all those deeres

[@solarcitygarage]

You should have bought all the tractors. Would have tripled your money just with easy parts and scrapped the rest.

[@Steverinomeister]

That Yamaha went for ALL the money.

[@robbypro3370]

Putting the holes in the frame is cost saving, less material, the keys were cost savings also.

[@miebrus79]

do you have a website where you sell these items?

Those John Deere tractors went cheap. Twenty years ago antique tractor pulling was the biggest fad in my small town and two cylinder John Deeres sold for a lot of money. Nowadays, two cylinder John Deeres only sell for scrap value.

[@johnellis8480]

Where are you located Daniel? Here in Colorado they still bring good money.

[@charlesatwell6658]

@@johnellis8480 I agree, in SW VA. any running 2 cylinder JD would be worth 2,000 or so if it is complete! Those original weights are super expensive these days, well over a dollar a pound for sure!
