We need a little more help from your end. What condition are they in? Running? Not running but complete? Decent tires?

I am from Manitoba, they don't bring a lot here. A running W-4 with fair tires might bring $800-$1000. A Super W-6 running with fair tires might bring $1000-$1200.

I wouldn't scrap them, it's kind of a shame to do that to them. Parts are getting harder to come by and hopefully someone will make you a fair offer. I met an old collector a few years ago who had a really good way of pricing tractors when he was buying or selling. If he was looking to buy a non-running common tractor that was complete (Like a W-4 or Super W-6), he would offer double the scrap value. A pretty fair price to both buyer and seller in my opinion. The problem I find personally, is that a lot of guys will only offer scrap price for decent condition complete tractors (non-running condition of course).
 
tractors have had a complete strip down refurbish but I cant get an offer on them. I live in a non agriculture area. I have advertised on several computer web sites but have received no reply's.

Did you try advertising them on this site? There is also IHC chapter 38's website in western Canada that has a classified section. How about the Western Producer antique machinery section? Obviously if you are contemplating selling them for salvage then your price can't be unreasonable. Someone must have a new home for them.
