An interesting post with pictures.

Buggy is in Nebraska, and posted in Southern Illinois.

At least the poster is honest about possible use- mostly hardware for another project, let rot as yard ornament. Green county Amish might be able to use some bits and pieces- but they get a lot of springs and iron from Bellville salvage yard for some ineresting , usable implements and buggies, farm wagons. Nice picture. Brother had some similar buggy axles, bits in shed when he died- auction got scarp value. RN

My dad was always into horse-drawn stuff like that. Restored a couple of buggies, had a bunch of harness that he repaired and restored, etc. In his later years, when he went to sell it, was very disappionted to discover that there is almost no market for that stuff- it has outlived most who are interested in it. Ended up giving most of it away to his other teamster buddies who were younger than he.
