I don't think I'd want to drop a pile of money on a building, store etc in this day and age. You do have to stop and consider that there are reasons why the rest of them went belly up. I doubt they were all poor manangers... I know that around here that just wouldn't work. It might be different where you are, but here... the CooP has most of the market on that type of stuff although they don't deal in parts to any degree. There was another outfit that tried a feed store and I don't recall that it lasted very long.
I have thought like you that there could well be a market for parts here though. There is a lot of tractors around; mostly old Fords.... and most of the old guys that own them have no idea where to begin to find parts now that the nearest dealer is 250 miles away. I've toyed with the idea of buying a pile of inventory in that I need myself, but I don't really have the time either. If I had more help around it would be another thing. I think that could work though... Don't tie a pile of money up in it and see what happens.
