Back in 1993, I bought my first tractor, a 1956 Fendt F15. It was intended to help with my hobby those days: sheep.

​

A little later at an exhibition I saw a book on veteran tractors and found out that there was a Fendt  F15 in it, and of course, bought the book: This must have been the moment I got infected with the OLDIRON-disease.

​

Soon the sheep barn was needed for tractors and the sheep were sold.
 

Some day in 2004 my whole life changed dramatically. I quit the family construction business and started to travel looking for tractors.

I soon found out the oldiron-disease for me was a cure. It changed my life completely and made me travel, meeting great people in many countries over the world,

 

Soon we needed a truck & trailer to bring our treasures home.

​

We also needed a mechanic and found him in Wim, a good friends son who was dreaming about making a living in antique tractors and still loves to work on them every day and is a collector as well..

​

My son spends every free hour he has in the old iron hobby and brings everything to life, preferably the ones "impossible to start"

​

By now, we collect, restore, buy and sell antique tractors, cars trucks and much more. We are always in business mode and buy and sell, whether it is a single piece or an entire collection.

We especially like steel wheeled ones, the older the better.

​

That's also why we helped organise in 2017 the
