[QUOTE="Little Joe, post: 1844496, member: 39122"] I ended up with an Allis Chalmers 160 diesel, an Allis Chalmers 1948 G, both which I have got running and use the 160 to bush hog with the bush hog that was attached to it. 2 old hay rakes, one Massey and one new holland, a sickle hay mower and an old New Holland square baler, a Massey 6' disc, a Massey 6' turn blade, a boom pole, a 3 point spreader, a sickle mower that attaches to the Allis G, a 10' drag type disc that the bearings are locked up on and a 10' 3 point cultivator with a wheel kit on it and what was probably a nice disc hay mower when it was parked but the curtain rotted off and it was so rusted it fell apart, sit so long that it was burying itself and had cedars growing through it. The 2 tractors were in the 40x60 barn out of the weather but everything else was just outside all these years, I had to go through the 3 point seeder because the gears had gotten rusted and wouldn't turn. The G and 160 didn't take much to get running again. That 160 is a good tractor but cold natured as they come, I put the biggest battery on it that would fit and an inline heater, that helped but if it's cool out at all it will take it 10 minutes to start. I had no idea that any of this equipment existed until after we closed on the place, the guy said he was going to get the stuff out of the barn after closing which after discovering them I assumed was the tractors but I gave it about 6 months and he never got anything so I got them running. The place was so overgrown that I had no idea that the 40x60 barn existed and I've lived next to this place since 1999, now you can see it from the road. I keep my hay in the barn. It was set up to hold squares down the center that is about 16' wide and on each side it had hay mangers so the cows could be under the barn and eat hay. I can store 60 round rolls down the center.
