ANTIOCH — After 35 years, Harold and Linda Stallard have sold their Antioch ranch and will now put their remaining property up for auction starting at 10 a.m. Saturday at 5725 Tindale Road.

The auction will include all furniture, farm equipment, antiques, firearms, collectibles and livestock.

"This auction will have an old-timey feel," said John Harris of Harris Auctions.

Of particular interest will be two classic cars that Harris calls barn finds: a 1964 Ford Thunderbird and a 1961 Chevy Bel Air two-door convertible.

The auction will be conducted with no reserve or minimum and a 10 percent buyer's minimum.

The Stallards are selling because of health reasons. It's not a hardship or charity event, but Harris bills it as a "big deal," especially for the community of Antioch and Thonotosassa. A preview will be held today from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Attendees are asked to use the McIntosh Road entrance 5 miles north of Interstate 4.
