Trying to get a sense if this is a good deal.
The asking price is $2000, but it's a couple hours away and I'll have to figure out how to get it here. The details are:
1954 model Super C (Serial 194xxx)
Hasn't been run in 3 years and has sat outside under some trees for 2 years. The owner is elderly and sold his acreage a couple years back after having heart surgery. The tractor was running when parked and the rear tires were nearly new. It has a little flap cap on the exhaust pipe, but I'm concerned about condensation having potentially gotten into the internals. So the current engine condition is unknown.
Needs:
A battery
Carb rebuild after sitting so long
New rear main seal (leaks about a quart every 6 hours during operation)
New front tire
Oil pan gasket
Light switch wiring or resistor (converted to 12v alternator)
Paint (no biggie, this won't be a showpiece)
Includes:
Front and real wheel weights
3 point adapter
2 row cultivator
6 foot International blade
30-inch rear scoop
590inch Woods RM59 finish ower
The working condition of these implements is unknown
