Not exactly tractor-related, but I was at a sale sometime back, man had brought in his diesel-powered Chevy Chevette--maybe Isuzu or Mitsubishi engine, I forget. Just a beat-up old car but unusual because of the diesel. Said it was parked maybe 15-20 yrs outside in his yard. Thought he could pop in a new battery and get it running because that's how it goes with diesels. Spent at least three hours, taking fuel system apart, checking injectors, getting it to crank because mice had eaten up the wiring. Nothing. All the while the bidders and auctioneer are getting closer. A good little crowd had gathered to offer support and see if he could get the Chevette running again. By the time the bidders came to his car, he still couldn't get it started, but it fetched $375 or thereabouts, bald and flat tires, torn up interior, uniform layer of rust over the body. I thought it was a pretty generous price.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
