    Best money (savings) farm auction item I ever won was a vintage set of horse blinders. Every time I map out my travel route and google can't avoid passing by a Richie Bros. auction site, I put those on and I'm golden. The two times I've been pulled over for wearing them, I managed to only get stern warnings.

      Considering it's 60 something years old and been sitting out in the weather it's in very clean shape. There's a guy in my area who has a small cable shovel and as a kid every time we'd go by his house it was always sitting in one spot for the longest time and never seemed to move. Because it was always incredibly rusty and it never moved I thought it was abandoned there. But I was told by my father that the guy used it for moving stone and dirt. Just in recent years he cleaned up the main body of it and painted it red. So now it looks like it gets attention and not just being a rusty lawn ornament. :)

    The only bad thing here is that I suggest you really ought to finish restoring Christine before you so much as start restoring another grader. Get the cab windows in, even if you end up using perspex, & fit the cab out plus whatever else is left to do, maybe sign writing or whatever, because otherwise you'll be looking at a huge list of unfinished projects rotting away... it's just a little bit of self denial required...
