If you have a horse, training them to drive is a rewarding experience. Driving a single horse or a team of two is new and interesting---definitely something you can share with friends and family. There's a lot of roads suitable, and, if you're up for it, you can offer a carriage service for weddings, anniversaries, proms, and events so you can monetize your hobby too. We've done all of that as well as competed in driving classes at horse shows. There's nothing quite like rolling along with an actual horse providing the horse power.
If you don't have a horse, these carriages and buggies might also be pulled with a quad ATV or garden tractor, or you could make yourself some other kind of "horseless carriage" for natural farming, parades, or Burning Man.
The carriages are beautiful, well-maintained, stored inside a climate-controlled building, and have been finely constructed by skilled craftsmen. They are built for different purposes so you're likely to find what you're looking for here.
Here's a description of what's available:
Two-seat rockaway carriage used in government ceremonies with black Leather seats and patent leather fenders. Top folds back. Hydraulic brakes, hard rubber tires, circle pole with eveners, whiffle trees and neckyoke. Just added brand new shafts for single-horse pull. Built in early 1900’s. $2500 obo.
Horse-sized Meadow Brook — split seat for easy entry, hard rubber tires on 80” wooden wheels. The big wheels and simple, two-wheel design make it suitable for driving through fields---the "off-roader" of buggies. $1500 obo.
Two-seat rockaway buggy without top. Hydraulic brakes, hard rubber tires, with a tongue (2-horse) and shafts (1-horse). Needs repainting, but the buggy is solid with no soft spots anywhere thanks to storing it inside. A great choice for starting out. $1800 obo.
