Title: FCs at Barham NSW Clearing Sale
Post by: Trevor_B on November 20, 2012, 02:16:23 PM
Hi,
Came across these 3 FCs last Sunday at a clearing sale near Barham NSW (on the Murray, not far from Kerang).

They sold at $200, $50 & $30 respectively and no, I did not buy them  :-\
They went to a local guy who only wanted a couple of parts. I understand at the end of the Auction he couldn't even remember what he paid :D

I did buy a couple of "mystery boxes" and found a few useful parts but the auctioneer was a bit funny.... once you put in a starting bid he kept your bid going until you either won or specifically told him that you had stopped bidding - weird. He also sold 2 fergy tractors for $920 when everyone thought he was selling just 1. The first one was pretty bad however the 2nd was a good one - probably would have gone for $2K+by itself if we just understood what he was doing  :-\

Below are the ID tags for those interested, sorry about the last one (the std sedan) as it is a bit unreadable. No motors/engines in them.

BTW, a badly rusted EH wagon with no straight panels went for $1500! At least $1250 more than it was worth  :o

Yes shame about the last tag - rare car indeed - a SECV fleet car painted in comission grey
