      btw, there's a whole genre of youtube videos "so I heard there was a bulldozer / excavator / dump truck out in the forest for the past 15 years so I went out there with some tools, a fresh battery, engine oil, and a gallon of diesel" https://twitter.com/ddoniolvalcroze/status/1310948101184774148 …

      2/ Having watched a half dozen of them, I don't. Most of the old iron has very limited electrical systems, and diesel engines can be very very very robust. And abandonment isn't boolean - owners walk away from a $2,000 value machine "for a week". >>> https://twitter.com/mitrebox/status/1310950129483091972 …

      3/ A good diesel mechanic can rescue a machine that has problems beyond the abilities of the former owner, who was likely engaged in barely profitable work with an ancient machine. After $500 of labor and $500 worth of parts a $2,000 scrap value machine can be restarted

          4/ and the economics make sense if we posit (a) the mechanic enjoys this (b) he's monetizing his youtube channel

          5/ but the whole Haggerty style "barn find" stuff ... yeah, I mean, there are people who own 20 or 500 old cars, and they store them in a variety of ramshackle barns, and Haggerty "discovers" them. Crap, man, that guy knew exactly what he had all along https://twitter.com/mitrebox/status/1310950129483091972 …
