Skytrooper, I was already in Niagara Falls by the time I saw your post. I'm sorry.

Some results:





This big Kinnard fooled no one. It brought $375,000. It's 7 1/2 in. bore 9 in stroke (1587 cubic inch) engine ran like new. It was mechanically excellent.




The same buyer who bought the Kinnard paid $210,000 for this Sandusky.







This 100 year old International Harvester Mogul 45 brought $265,000. It's 2 cyl horizontally opposed engine of about 1200 cubic inches ran beautifully.





This nice E model Rumely brought $200,000 plus $13,500. For a set of wheel extensions (I don't know why they sell them separately).





I think someone got a bargain on this Hart Parr 30-60 at $135,000 (plus $7500 for the wheel extensions). With it's 2500 cubic inch 2 cyl hit & miss engine it is a beast . It sounds like it's going to blow apart even when it's running perfectly - not nearly as sophisticated as the Kinnard or Mogul. But it's over 100 years old, big, and in great condition.





This was the big surprise to me. This Plowboy is nothing special, other than it is the only one in existence. It's an assembled tractor, with a Foote transmission and Wisconsin engine. No new technology, nothing special. Sold for $180,000.
