Inherited Equipment

Hi, I have inherited some old farm equipment and need some advice on what to do with it. I have a D-19 (in-half), a 190 XT, 12(?)-foot disc, 4-bottom plow, 4-row planter, as well as some other implements. I am trying to find out if there is a market for these or if I would be better off scrapping everything. I will try to post some pictures. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. I am located in South Alabama.

You have good Iron there, you need a Forum member near you to assist in the proper dispatch of your items. Have patience please, China can wait.

My gosh man, you struck gold!

The disc plow you show is actually the much more rare disc tiller, closer spaced blades on a single long shaft like a disc.

Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.

The factory propane 190 would be worth saving too.

Don't scrap anything! That is some good stuff! that field cultivator doesn't look bad at all, neither does the disc tiller. The disc harrow could use a little work, but can be fixed. The 190XT is a salvageable machine, seems to be all there, and I know you won't have the propane setup for the 190 for long. It's a neat setup. I live in NE GA, if I had room to use any of that, i'd be over there this weekend.

We have some members in Alabama, as well as Southwest GA., Arkansas, Louisiana, and all other states close to you. If you just want scrap price for this stuff, you will have no trouble getting rid of it. I'm sure there are plenty on here that would give a fair price for what you have.

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT SELL THAT TO THE SCRAPPER. CHINA DOES NOT DESERVE ANYTHING AS GOOD AS ALLIS CHALMERS IRON, AND ALLIS-CHALMERS IRON DESERVES MORE RESPECT THAN THAT.

drooling...... wish i could find a yard like that. WOW. priceless items... way too good to scrap.

What part of Alabama are you in? May be interesting in some of the stuff you have there, if you aren't too far away. Feel free to send me a PM.

Thanks

Is the rest of the D19 hiding out in a building somewhere around there? It will take a lot of work to bring everything back to life but I'm sure there are people close enough that are willing to do it. I hope it all goes to good homes. Thanks for posting instead of just calling a scrapper.

I do have all of the pieces to the D19. According to my BIL, it was a monster pulling machine. I will take some more pictures and post in the next day or two for those interested. Thanks.

Your response level looks promising. It's so nice to see this stuff being saved and brought back to what it once was.

Interested in the D-19 how much for it in pieces?

First thing I would want to do is organize all of the impliments away from the dirt and brush and get them up onto pallets so I could tell exactly what I have. Nice bunch of "stuff"! I finally got my D15 ready to roll and now have to look for impliments. Good luck. Dave

Here are a couple of implements not pictured yet:

Found this one hiding in the weeds. Best I could do without cranking up the chainsaw.

SoAl, If it wouldn't be too nosy of me to ask, what's the story of all this AC equipment? Was that area a big AC area? It seems like it's all orange (and rust) at that farm.

JohnCO, except for a Farmall 140, a 4-row JD planter, and other various discs, bushhogs, etc, it is all AC. All of the equipment belonged to my Father-in-law. I never met him but he obviously believed in AC and would have probalby fit in real well on this forum. I'm not originally from here, but from what equipment I see other farmers using around here, this wasn't a big AC area.

My FIL used this equipment to clear his land and to farm corn and other row crops down here. After his passing, my MIL continued for some time with some help of a couple of farmhands, who didn't seem too interested in taking care of the equipment. As you can tell by the pictures, it has been years since any of this equipment has been used. Recently my MIL turned it all over to me, so that's why I'm here (thank-you Google). Thanks to a lot of the members here, I know a lot more about AC than I did a week ago. Thanks
