3 Videos: open sale flier then click video #1, 2 or 3. By far the largest garden tractor auction, by 4-5 times larger, 300 GT's, than any I've ever see, and all from just one guy collecting !

No,none of us were dealers. All 3 of us are farmers with a major AC addiction. Gary is a super nice fella, he goes to lots of auctions and buys mainly AC stuff. My brother and I have purchased stuff from Gary. He has a lot of lawn mowers of all kinds. The most that I have seen. Just giving him a little hard time. It's great to have someone in our area with some neat stuff for sale. He also has some neat Oliver tractors. I bought a 4 bottom AC semi mount plow from him this spring.

Used to average about 40 auctions a year,think my personal one day record was 12 garden tractors at the Marion PA auction one Wednesday.Been gathering up old tractors since around 1975.Have had a lot of fun and have met a whole lot of nice folks thru the years many are on here.

Thank you, both AC720Man & Gary himself -- it's amazing what just a few tractors even now and then can add up to . . . I'm only up to 24, guess I better slow down . . . . but I have looked at those videos about 5 times each now . . . WOW!
Thanks again, Glen

Glen, you have a far worse addiction than myself or my brother! That's impressive!
