Heavy Equipment Auction

[Blairgowrie]

Helen and I went to a heavy equipment auction near Toronto yesterday. I didn't buy anything but some of the stuff was awfully tempting. Here are some photos.

What exactly were you after BG? One specific... 'thing' or a complete set of 'thingies'?

~S~ BG,

Did they have any exhibition stunt drivers doing stuff ?

[Blairgowrie]

Primary interest was in an excavator. I liked the look of a 2002 Hitachi 200LC but it had high hours (10,205) and sold for $38,000. Another guy who is an excavator driver was meant to go down with us but he got his dates mixed up and was in the Dominican Republic yesterday. It was a very interesting day with lots of Willie Nelson look alikes.

I would skip these and just by an old WW2 Sherman and put a shovel on her front, and use the cannon to knock down trees.

Just shows how little you guys know about Canadian hard maple! A ronson Sherman could neither blow one down or shove one over.

Ahh.. but you'd have so much fun you'd forget about all that!

And look at all the friends you'd make!
