What would it be worth?

For those in the know, Belarus 400A, no engine, tires look maybe 75%. Dealer has it and he will not take scrap value. What do you think would be fair?
 
In my part of the country, you can't get scrap price out of running Belarus. Friend of mine bought a good running 4wd with cab for $1500.00. The air cooled ones are worth even less. I guess it depends how bad you want or need it.
 
Hi If you want the tires, It's worth what they are worth used plus the weight of the tractor in the ideal world, If you are offering $300-400 thats why he won't take it the tires are worth more. What I have found with dealers before on stuff thats parts only they try to value it at what the wrecker gets for it when he's sold the good, and scrapped the rest.

They are not selling it to you for the money the wrecker will pay , if they even want it. I tried buying fixers from dealers local before, it was a complete waste of time. It was cheaper to buy a good one privately from a guy and not have the headache fixing it with time and unexpected parts costs. The dealer wants you buying new not help you get a deal and keep you farming on old equipment he's not making money on in his dealership, or put you out of business so the big outfit farms your land that does buy more new equipment Truth be told.

Hi it's a shame I can't film here because of confidentiality to my customers or the guys I raise hogs for. We have got a 1996 920 (5270) Belarus we've had since our dealership days, It's got huge hours on and is pretty well worn out with the hard work it's done. It's currently hooked to our 10 ton Belarus manure spreader and been working hard the last 2 weeks spreading 7 hours a day plus.

I got shop customers I still fix Belarus tractors for to that are still good after many years. It's not the tractors fault there is nobody that can fix them properly and get parts in some area's. They are just the same as any make there are guys beat them to death, I wouldn't buy a used wheel barrow from, It's not always the tractor. We sold new ones to guys where the hired man hated it and beat it up bad hoping for a new JD or Case IH. The owner said keep fixing it I'm paying the bills, He's not having a new what ever after the abuse he gives this and it still works. Regards Robert
 
I have owned a Belarus ,1979 model since new. Tractor has been a great machine. Then at 4,700 hours the Transmission needs major work. I purchased a parts tractor for $600.00. Tractor came with no rear Rims / Tires. Clutch needs to be replaced. I contacted Mechanic that had serviced tractor sine new, tractor need only a clutch and it should run fine. I installed a battery and engine runs perfect.

I had adaptors made in 1977 so as I can run the 18.4 X 30" rears off my useless Massey 88 Diesel on my Belarus 4 cylinder Air cooled.

Pictures are of the $600.00 Parts Tractor with rear Tires /Rims I had off my daily Belarus. Yes rear tires look great after 38 years.....not bad for all the BS we hear about Russian Tires.
