Nice variety of finds. Congrats. I like the eagle pendant.

That crank is OLD.

TexasJeff · Oct 31, 2019

Yeah, me too. I was impressed that the fastening nut was still on it.

That's a neat variety of stuff. Love the knife and gun parts. Have you ever hunted in the Nacogdoches area?

Nice assortment of finds.

Not yet. Just recently, last 3 months have hunted many spots in Lufkin. Also during the same time, Zapata, Woodville, Jasper, and Huntington. I intend on going to Nachodoches for sure.

I use to have a ranch in Nemo, Texas and a friend of mine, who lived a bit north of Granbury, and I went down there once, but only got a couple of hours hunting in. Always wanted to go back, but never made it.

That's some cool old stuff. There's no telling what's in the ground around Nacogdoches. Good luck.

If that's a Ford crank, it'll be marked. Looks like a tractor crank!

Will collectors buy the crank if it’s cleaned up? I know gear heads can get extreme

If you can find a marking on it it would be likely. Ford was pretty good at marking anything theirs. I'm sure others might also have some brand marks too and it would depend on the brand as to who wants it. I once had a Jeep manufactured by Ford in 1942 and every bolt on it had the Ford script..
