Been there done that, I used to be a used equipment dealer and got my start in the seventies attending The Stilesville Implement Auction (West of Indy on old US 40, actually got the mugs and calendars and thermometers etc they gave away at Christmas), Jim Vaughn and Son, Ted Everett Auctioneers. In its peak it lasted two long full days twice a month, much bigger then Ted's sale now. Jims son Eric (went to school with him) got teased as HE was Jims son (DUH) but the adds mentioned Teds name lol Jim Vaughn took young Ted under his wing wayyyyyyyy back years ago. Ted and his brother George (Junior) started a tractor and combine salvage yard years ago just west of Monrovia on the old home place which I think their sons took over.
Anyway that (SIA) lasted over 25 years, old Jim dies and Eric has a falling out and goes to selling Yellow Iron soooooo Ted starts his own auction a few years later, the rest is history
John T Nordhoff (used to attend EVERY SIA Auction in the seventies and eighties till it closed, after Carl Salesman and John Stamm and Dennis Polk took it over briefly after Jims death)

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
