Default Re: Iowa Auction

If you look up Robert L. Gabeline's obit, you will see that he is what most farmers refer to as a corporate type farm but the guy had a GMC truck dealership, more than a few grain elevator storage facilities, and a fertilizer plant just to name a few. He was definitely big time into farming. I came from a medium size family farm but his operation dwarfed ours for sure. It sounds like he was a hot rodder too.

He had so many cars & bikes that he couldn't keep all the tires aired up let a lone find the time to drive them all. Must have been nice....
