1470's are one of the most fuel efficent tractors ever made and if they are given proper service (which is not hard) will run many thousands of hrs trouble free, I know guys in MT that upuntil just a few years ago still used them as their primary tillage tractors the man I am referring to had three of them all with over 16000 hrs on each, I think they had overhauled the engines just once and put in two clutches and several wheel seals and maybe a few u-joints, I have two 1470's myself that I use on my farm we also sold 5 or so new back in the day in my opinion Great tracors, they do not have a isolated cab like the next gen Case 4whd but they had the std 8spd tranny with no power shift and are just simple and durable, for non running ones I have seen at auction they start at 1500.00 for a bareback tractor with only hyd, 3pt adds 500.00 or so pto will comand even more money if some one is there wanting it hope this helps give you a better idea, one thing here in our dry climate that does not bother but could be in your area is the all metal fuel tank depending on how it was cared for good luck cnt

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?").
