Looking for pedal tractor to raffle

At my local antique tractor club meeting last night we were trying to think of something to do to raise money to cover expenses for our first tractor show. Knowing that food sales don't make much from past experiences in my past experiences I suggested we raffle off something like a pedal tractor which everyone thought awas a good idea. My problem is that we don't really have a lot of time, and I need to get a tractor, clean it up repaint etc. in time for our May 11, 2013 show. Also need one that won't break the bank. I know many of you have these in your collections and wouldn't want to part with them but if you know of anyone that has and off brands like JD IH, Ford, etc. (<: My club would be interested in a purchase. In my experience (I don't like to admit this but...) the green ones are more popular to the general public. So if anyone knows of one that is available, we are thinking in the $150-$200 range let me know, my email is open.

Also, are the decals for these toys available anywhere if we have to refurb?

Thanks, if this works this year we may need to repaint one for next year. I lucked out and found a JD 730 new in box for a very reasonable price but you never know from year to year what we can find. Paint color is pretty easy to match and with a place for parts and decals we are in business. I think we raffle a different brand every year so we don't specialize, also increases our choices and helps keep costs down.

We are hoping our first tractor show won't be our last. I probably need to go on all of the brand YT forums and post our date and club Web site. If there are folks monitoring the YT forums and reasonably close maybe I can generate some interest.
