Hello everyone! I finally realized that with a full-time job and other things going on, that I need to downsize my Case tractor collection. I will be posting photo ads on this site probably later this week, but would like to know what your opinion on the value of these tractors. Sorry I don't have any pictures for you today, as I know they will help you formulate your opinion, but with our weather, I will have to wait until we have sun again to get out and get some good ones. On the pricing, I realize that the values fluctuate and it's whatever two people agree to, but I trust your honest opinion as you all are the experts! The location is Frederick county, MD.
1. Case 730 Diesel Comfort King - 267 diesel engine, new starter, remanufactured hydraulic pump, dual range, wide front (possibly Schwartz?), power steering, new rear rims, 15.5 x 38s in decent shape with fair amount of tread, rear wheel weights and at least one front weight. Starts easily and runs good. Cosmetically it needs some work, but the tin is straight.
2. Case Loader (currently on 730) - I don't know the model number, but I know it's Case. The arms are good, no welds, but the bucket is in poor condition. I don't know whether I should sell it with the tractor or take it off and sell the tractor separately. My father bought this loader with his Case 730 (not the one I'm selling), so I might keep it, but would like to know what it's worth.
3. Case 630 Diesel - 188 diesel engine, new wiring, Tripl-Range, narrow front, Eagle Hitch, power steering. Starts and runs good. Has a screen guard so the grill screens aren't all bent up. Rear wheels have a set of IH weights on them. Front tires need to be replaced, but the rears match and are in decent condition.
4. Case 430 Diesel - 188 diesel engine, Tripl-Range, Draft-o-matic, wide front, Power Adjust rear rims with a good set of matching rear tires. I used to use this tractor with my bush hog all the time, but then the wiring melted and I haven't fixed it or had it started since. There is also a thin crack in the block, and the left rear wheel is locked up. Right now, it's condition is "parts" or "restorable", but it will need some work before it's running.
5. Case Loader 2 - This one hasn't been on either the 630 or 430, but I know it will fit. It was on a Case 400B, which I bought as a parts tractor. There are some reinforcement welds for the side mounts and comes with a small bucket.
The proceeds of these sales will go towards getting our father's Case 730 Diesel Comfort King restored. He bought it new in 1966 in Adamstown, MD, which is about 10 miles from where I currently live. While I wanted a complete 30 series collection of restored Case tractors, I realize that it will take a lot of time and money, both of which are in limited supply right now! Therefore, I'd rather focus on having one really nice restored tractor that has a lot of sentimental value to us than a fleet of tractors sitting around.
Thanks for any and all responses!
