Stumbled upon my grandpa's original 4020 operator manual in a box last year. I completely forgot he had given it to me before he passed away. It might not be worth much in cash, but to me, it’s priceless, especially with his notes scribbled in the margins from jobs he tackled decades ago.

Got a 1950s cast iron Deere seat from a tractor my dad restored. It makes for a fantastic shop stool and a great conversation starter. It’s heavy as can be, but it’s built to last forever, unlike the stuff they make today.

I really regret selling a vintage metal dealership sign from the 60s at a garage sale for just twenty bucks. I had no clue what it was worth back then. Now, I see them online for hundreds! I kick myself every time I think about that silly decision to sell off a piece of family history for next to nothing.

My dream collectible would be an original Johnny Popper in running condition. Watching those two-cylinder engines fire up never gets old. It’s way out of my budget, but a guy can dream, right? Maybe someday, if I hit the lottery

This place is filled with unforgettable memories and a bit of regret, it really highlights how even the tiniest Deere items can hold great personal significance.
