Just went back to Gurkins site. Looked at the pics. They are getting rid of the whole place!

I went to Gurkins auction site. Looks like they are getting rid of our parts supply! Also scrap. What about the 10 pieces of "scrap" on my floorplan account?

From what I was told, all the parts are the property of the Company store now. But I am not sure who owns it ( the company store that is) . But all invoices where being sent to them to process. Plus they seem to have nothing to do with Mr. Gurkins. So I would say all the parts and things of that nature have been sold to them who ever they are.

NONE of the picks show the parts department I was in. I knew that stuff was already sold or it would of been listed in the picks on this auction. I think we will have parts but for the brand it is going to die. This is just a sad, sad, sad day for allot of folks.

That is good, Who owns the Company store? I am lost on that one.

Does anyone know if the 900 new units are going to be on the sale? That could be the start of the end for other CUT companies.

I looked at Country Boys Auction & Realty and it said that site had been viewed 158 times and none of those pics were on there! Said coming soon. Now the site has been viewed 230 times and all those pics. Busy little bees someplace! I cannot wait for responses today from Textron!!!

farmtrac.

This is all clear to me now. Lewpack is there shill bidder, for the auction. He will have already made an set offer for all items. So they will not sell to far below invoice. But he will get them at a discount. He is just checking the water to see if any one bites. Man this is a real Ghoul. There is nothing wrong with making a honest buck, but man talk about a bottom feeder.

From what the Gurkin website says NEW tractors, SO...... What we need to remember though is April 25 is along time from now. Look at Lewpack on Monday and then by Wed it was a different story!

Anybody got an idea how many tractors are sitting on dealer lots in the US? I could probably go back and read the other 40+ pages of this thread again and find it, but maybe someone could tell me. I got 14 here!

I just left a VM at Textron. Wonder what they will have to say?

farmtrac.

That is not what they told me at the company store. They wouldnt say who owned them. But I am sure, but can not prove it is not farmtrac. I was told they had nothing to do with them. We will see. In a month it will all float to the top.

I would say 3 to 4 thousand or more.

I got 4 tractors with loaders,a tiller and a finish mower.My 555 came in with a ground up gearbox and was to be returned for the service guys to look at.I guess it too is scrap now.

When I saw that, I was kinda wondering if he is trying to sell somthing he does not own yet. Just to test the waters and see what he can fetch so he knows what to bid.

That is the way it works, I have a uncle that buy over 4 million a year at auctions and he does the same stuff. He is a Ghoul also LOL. Man you have to be a heartless trick to do something like that. But, money is there God. It is what it looks like to me. Just another troll trying to make a buck.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm the Lewpack International websight has almost gone BLANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I talked to BS with Textron right as this auction stuff was first coming out. He knew nothing about what I was telling him and I could smell the smoke burning out his ears!

But please also remember that LewPak had authorization from the wrong people, Gurkins is the now the CEO of Farmtrac. This will happen.
