My neighbor had a Gravely ride behind garden tractor setting in her field for many many years. I helped her around her place after her husband past and she asked me to take all the "junk" out of her field, do whatever I wanted with it.
I sold the Gravely to a fellow who had a 5hr drive to pick it up.
He brought a small pkup that I said would not hold the tractor and attachments, he said it would, he would just take the handles and such off.
Well those nuts/bolts looked like were welded to each other with rust.
He took a pair of 8" channel locks and turned those nuts with absolutely no effort. I have found the same thing true on old equipment that hasn't been worked on in years, like plows, disks etc.
Yet things I have put together less than a year ago are so froze up I have to use heat to break them loose.
