Yesterday,I was up early for the Walter Headrick Estate sale held just south of Stotesbury,MO..Walter left us much too early at the age of just 62..I left home a little before 7:30 AM for the 28 mile drive up there...On the way to the sale I passed lots of Amish on the Stotesbury Road...I knew Walter because about 10-12 years ago I bought the 3rd MM Bale-O-Matic hay baler ever built from him..I also sat with him at the MO State Fair tractor pull several times..He was a great guy.
The sale started at 9 AM and they ran 2 rings for most of the day..When I left there at dusk,a little after 5 PM each ring still had over 1 hour left to go....I didnt get to see lots of the machinery sell..This was a huge-huge sale..The temp was in the low 20's at the start of the sale and it got up to the high 30's by the middle of the afternoon..It wasnt warm but it still felt much better than the sale I attended on Friday near Liberal,MO...There was a large crowd in attendance..
All I bought at the sale was a chili-dog, blackberry cobbler, peach cobbler,and a coke for $10.. These ladies also did the lunch at the sale 2 weeks ago north of Fort Scott,KS. They sure make some great cobblers that are reasonably priced..
The 4430 JD with a JD 168 loader sold for $17,500..The front bucket sold later for $300. The tractor was running at 8AM when I got there and wasnt shut off until it sold at 2 PM.
The 7060 Allis with Powershift sold for $3,500...It would run but wasnt started at the sale because the throttle cable was frozen up..
The running 730 John Deere diesel sold for $6,000. They had to pull start it..
The 1968 model John Deere 4020 sold for $12,000. It had nearly new tires. The Gehl 5635 skid steer sold for $14,000. It burnt about 1 qt oil per day and had some oil leaks.
The 2005 Sterling road tractor with 900,000 miles sold for $5,500.
The hay trailer sold for $1,700..I think it would haul 26 big bales.
The John Deere 1470 mower conditioner sold for $2,600. There were two John Deere 1209 mower conditioners that I didnt see sell. The closest Vermeer 605K baler sold for $1,050.. The parts Vermeer baler sold for $300. There was another Vermeer baler.
The 1992 GMC 3500 with 124,000 miles and bale spike sold for $2,900. It was a 454,Automatic and it ran rough.. The right rear fender was gone.
Walter was a avid hunter and had tons of guns and ammo. It took one ring right at 2 hours to sell all of it. 5 guns went for over $1,000 each with a Benelli 12 gauge bringing $1,500. A 44 Ruger pistol sold for $900.
