Yes, this is the proverbial barn find. No I don't get to keep the barn, but surely there must be something in there we can use! -grant

Awesome find!! I'm jealous, but congrats!

you lucky lucky dog.. ive got a place in my shop you can put it if you'd like

looks like a gold mine. good catch.

Sol how cheap was everything or did you get paid to clean them out

WOW!!! Gold mine for sure. I have no doubt that you will walk away with some new "toys". Congrats. :)

Ooh ooh I see good stuff! Lucky lucky dog is right! Have you brought any home yet? Tell me you've talked to the owner and are at least negotiating.

Frosty The Lucky.

My heart started to beat fast just looking at it. Great score!

get the power hammer at least great find

Hey! I know where that barn is...... Ya better jump on it......... :ph34r:

I think macbruce is on his way over :o

Man, it looks like a whole setup for a line shaft workshop. Am I seeing the hit and miss engine also? That would be a great find if you can get it all. Right out of a museum or living history site.



Good luck,
Brian Pierson

Awesome! I actually dream about finding something like that....

That is a hit and miss, well, I think it is really a throttle governed engine. Looks like a Mcormick "M" engine around 3-6 HP. I'd love to find a barn like that!

It would all go great in my shop or the museum shop I am building. It is built out of an old barn so all the stuff should feel at home.
I like the grinder and belt motor.

My thanks to all for the offer of storage space; I was sure I could count on you. Here are some pictures, a little further in. -grant

Looks like a small pile of wet-exhaust hose, or large heater hose. Lots of good stuff in addition to the obvious!

Thats right, rub it in. I think you are getting the drinks in for this

Good Morning All
Again, thank you for all the encouragement.
These picks will show I didn't completely abandoned the site; walking off down the road chasing a lame turkey. We were a little down on lifting power, but when one is on the scrounge, one takes what one gets.
Yes, I am very fortunate and need to repay the cosmos. -grant

Grant, you done good, son. Thanks for sharing the pics and the progress on getting the stuff out of there. It keeps us hoping that we will someday find a barn like that. :)

Amen to that.

You're lucky that swearing isn't allowed on IFI...

Did you get the engine to run the whole kit and kaboodle? I hope so, even if you don't use it right away.
