soundguy - road trip?

3 Years ago when I bought mine $1500.00 would get me any number of 6000s running and driving OK. Now it's $1500 for a parts tractor and $2000 plus for a runner with issues. Maybe the SOS is making a comeback!
 
I bought all 3 of my 6000's for less than $825.00. I paid $600.00 each for first 2 and $825.00 for last one. All were in running condition they just needed minor adjustments.
 
About 5 years ago I went to an auction where there was a running, driving 6000. I was hoping to get it for $500 because of their reputation. The auctioneer opened the bidding at $1500 and a guy raised his hand. He turned out to be the only bidder and bought it. I overheard a guy ask him why he bought that money pit. His response was "I need a bigger tractor than my 8N". The other guy told him "good luck".
 
They've got one on craigslist right now... runs, but
has trans trouble, no seat, and no front
tires/wheels/hubs. $1500
 
Saw that was going up to look at it. At that price I think they are dreaming, although they have enough parts to put it together.
 
O.k.Fellows here is the bottom line,back some years ago you could buy a pair of broken MULES for 150 dollars(still spirited of course)If you plowed the thru a yellow jacket,s nest all bets were off.From what I know of a 6000 ford it would never make it to the yellow jacket nest.Catch my drift !!!

That's an excellent example of not knowing the difference between an original and second generation SOS!
 
if it was closer I'd go smell it.

I'm sure there are plenty of top covers acvailable for the 3pt if it is bad...
