My wife ran across this in a local shopper newspaper

This appears to be in an auctioneers barn near Arcola, Il, south of Champaign. I have no connection to this auction.

Can't say I didn't warn you.

Small crowd, lots of model T related items. Truly a bidders auction. I brought home a pickup load.

Examples-
26/26 gas tanks $6 to $10
FOUR 26/27 rear fenders $7
Aluminum hogshead $5
Two radiator shells (one high and one low) nice $25
Two boxes full of universal joints. The ones I checked had absolutely no play $35
Pile of headlight buckets - nice $2
A pile of steering shafts/5-1 steering column/front axle $20. I sold a pair of model A wishbones for $10 and driveshaft for $5 before I left
And piles more with boxes full of parts bringing from $2 to $10 each.

One of the best auctions I have been at in ages. Lots of good quality, low prices.

Apparently all of this came from the Joliet area
