I haven't been on this board in a long time. It was a great resource when I was fixing a Case 530 backhoe a few years ago.
I have a Case 580B that was left behind after my dad died and I'm trying to get a realistic value on it to sell.
It's been sitting for about 10 years so it would need all new hoses, seal, fluids, etc.
The 188 diesel ran when parked and the engine turns by hand.
Hydraulics were strong but the clutch was starting to go out (reason why it was parked)
It's pretty rough but has all parts and no severe rust but some weld repairs.
I'd like to sell it to fund other projects.
The best offer I've had is less than $1000.
Is it really worth that little? I would have thought $2000-$1800 just as a parts source but no one local is biting at that price.
I can put it on Craigslist or somewhere but I don't want to waste everyone's time if all I keep getting is $500 offers.
It's located close to Cincinnati if that matters.
Thanks for any help in deciding a value.
