How many 4000 later model blue row crop tractors were made? This is a diesel with the flat top fenders and the higher platform like a 7000 Ford. What years were these built, what is a good one worth? Could someone post pictures of one please? Thanks again.
 
I don't know that anyone could tell you how many were built.
And I can't say what one is worth though a decent AP would be worth $4-$6000 depending on hours, condition, tires etc.
They were built from 1965 to 1975. Can't say if they continued the RCs into the 4600 series.
This tractor belongs to one of the members of this board but i can't remember who it is now.
I found it on Google images.

The row crops tend to bring a bit less than a comparable AP model. No much different, but a little less. The 3-cyl. 4000 RC (4200) wasn't introduced until '67, making the louvered hood models fairly rare, with only 1 1/2 years' production. The later version was built through '75, but was not continued into the x600 series. The 5000 RC (5200) follows the 4200 production dates, but rather than dropping it, Ford replaced it in '76. The 7000 RC(7200) (there was also an AP version) was introduced in '72 and built through '75. In '76, Ford's row-crops were the 6600 and 7600RC, and 87/9700. The 6600/7600 RC's (52/7200's with minor updates) were replaced in '77 with the 6700 and 7700.
 
I have seen many 3cyl 4000 utility model tractors but the only row crop high platform that I have seen is the one in Ultradog's picture. Maybe in other places there are more of them. So I would think that they will increase in value. Uhhhh, so where is the one that you are looking at?
 
I've seen a few from time to time, but most have been tricycles, so they were priced less the the AP or utility versions. We have a local salvage yard that had 2 or 3 the last time I was there. I've seen a couple show up on CL in the last year. There has been a recurring listing for a gas one near central KY with a rebuilt motor.
 
Well, here's one in MN... but he'd need to drop his price by about 1/2 before I'd be interested, with a non-operational SOS. There was also one on ebay a couple months ago, in Ohio, I think. Also an early one with the louvered hood, but 8-speed and narrow front. Cheap enough that I'd have bought it, if it weren't for trucking costs.

Slight edit - in '76, the 86/9600 were still being made; the 87/9700 were introduced along with the 67/7700 in '77.
 
You think maybe he puts it in #1 then drives it around waiting for it to shift automatically?
 
Since he says it runs good, but won't move, I'm guessing it's the input shaft or clutch disk splines. The disconnect would be the first thing I'd check, though.
 
Would be an interesting project if he'd come down a couple grand. I've got the rear half to slap in it. I wonder how much work it would be to deal with the platform - transferring it over to another tractor, etc.
 
Those platforms are a real pita to take off or put back on...but I'd still tackle it, if it could be had for the right price. A second person or an overhead hoist would be a big help.
 
A 4200 diesel with a wide front, whether an 8-speed or an SOS, would be a nice one to have. Keep us posted if you find out anything more about it. Course, you'd have to sell it, as it has flattops...
