Littlefield Collection & Auction

[jdmcm]

So that is the Cent from Crown Surplus, boy now that takes me back to my misspent youth! That place was near and dear to my heart and I remember that tank well. I'm heading to the MVTF for one of the last tours next month, hopefully we will get a chance to see the vehicles that are being put on the block. My guess is a 108 vehicles being sold in two days, there will be bargains to be had, but that is simply my opinion. I'm guessing the smaller more manageable vehicles will be in higher demand, just a couple years ago a Conqueror was for sale on Dave Uhrigs site for 100k, it was also ex-littlefield and it took over a year to sell, finally ending up in the Midwest. Just moving some of these tanks to your location may cost as much as the selling price. But if they hit the estimates then I'm selling everything and retiring!

Ever since this auction thing started, I had wondered if certain U.S. buyers that have deep pockets would be participating or if they had already bought what they wanted. I just heard this morning that at least one is going to have people there. It may not be Canada, but there will be some cool vehicles heading a little ways North anyway.

I wonder what vehicles Mr. Allen is after...it would be nice to see them end up in his collection, I think unlike others who are motivated by greed and ego, Paul Allen has a genuine interest in preserving history...a true philanthropist.
