An opportunity knocks, this auction is a 9am start, just outside Wedderburn, some 80 k north of Bendigo.
Lots of trucks, Tractors, steam engines etc etc
lots of photos on line at oldsteel.110mb.com
From what I know the seller is a scrap dealer, only been in this area a couple of years, he has been collecting farm machinery to scrap but keeping the better items out of the crusher (and scrap has fallen from $450 to $200ish)
These Auctioneers always run a good auction.
Word of caution if you go for a look, petrol can be hard to find, particularly Saturday arvo/evening. And pre 0900 hours in the morning.
Might see you there

A fair indication, and a sobering one at that, of just what has been going to scrap.
It'd be nice to get up there and check out that Dodge ute for my father-in-law but TKing this weekend so will be gardening the next!

If anyone wanted to leave a bid (starting and final) with these auctioneers or a phone bid on the day, assuming they have reception, I would vouch for these guys to NOT run you up or just go with your top offer. The Nevins boys play fair. and they get my business.

Dave there were people delivering crates of arms and legs, babies and small children in significant quantities.
And the gates themselves have been recently re-engineered with an oxy and front end loader just to get them to lie resonably flat.
