I have been called upon to come and look at 3 tractors a guy inherited from his dad's estate. He has a Farmall M with Wide Front, a Minneapolis Moline UTU, and a Minneapolis Moline UBE with wide front. If I understand correctly, these tractors have been sitting in a barn for around 25-30 years; and one of the MM tractors has been sitting outside.
My question is.....I really don't have the TIME to restore these tractors (because I have over 50 Farmalls); BUT I would LOVE to restore them, or get them running condition at least. I THINK he will be asking scrap price for them (he says he doesn't want to send them to scrap); so what do you all think??? I wanted to ask you guys since you know these tractors so well. I know I could probably part them out for much more but that takes time and as I've found out with Farmalls, there are so many parts out there that it takes much longer than expected.
Question 2 is what are the 2 tractors worth in present condition, as parted out, and in restored condition?? Are they rare or hard to find?

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
