More Than Tractors
Kraft Auctions’ Tractor Division specializes in more than just tractors. We can handle your entire collection including signs, farm primitives and memorabilia, farm toys, literature, implements and attachments, and even your brass era automobiles. Some of the memorabilia you might see at our Tractor auction might include:
- Dealer Advertising & Signage: Original metal and porcelain signs from iconic brands like John Deere, International Harvester, Allis-Chalmers, and Ford—perfect for display in barns, garages, or man (or woman!) caves.
- Farm Toys & Scale Models: Die-cast and pressed steel replicas of classic tractors and implements, including Ertl and SpecCast collectibles that capture the charm of mid-century farming.
- Oil Cans & Lubricant Tins: Branded containers from Shell, Mobil, and other vintage suppliers, often featuring bold graphics and rustic patina.
- License Plates & Tags: State-issued farm vehicle plates and dealer-issued tags that add authenticity and character to any collection.




Restoration
Kraft auctions offers a unique service to prep your items for our live drive-through style auctions. Seeing the tractors driving through the building gets everyone’s heart pumping and is one of the most exciting parts of our Bi-Annual Vintage Tractor Auctions! We have a team of top tier tractor mechanics and restoration specialists that know the ins and outs of all things tractors and vintage vehicles. From prairie tractors and automobiles from the turn of the century to late model muscle tractors, our team can put the effort into making sure your item is running and driving for auction day.
