lonewolf- as said by others, value is what someone will pay. The first pic is a tractor I just bought earlier this summer. 800 with some stuff done, lots of aluminum, external disk brakes, custom sheet metal, very detailed, weighs about 6000lbs. Paid $9500. I wanted to build one, but I knew I"d spend a lot more, and it wouldn"t be as nice when it was done, besides taking me a couple of years. I guess it also depends on what class you"re pulling in. This one pulls in open speed classes at around 16-17 mph, which yours would not work well for, but yours does work in heavy, slower classes. I"d guess yours would bring 7-9k to the right buyer.
To the guys worried about "ruining" tractors to pull with, the second pic is a tractor that was pretty much ready for the scrap yard when I bought it (still looks like it should be there). It was a "65 G706LP (20 built). I put a strong motor in it, with a Gvi nose, and have been tearing up the low speed pulls, with an investment of about 3k. I have the parts it came with, and I didn"t "ruin" anything. I may restore it someday, but until then, I"m having fun with it, and it"s not in a scrap yard. I don"t see a problem with that.

He was a farmer by birth and a farmer by choice, and like many returning soldiers, he was our silent hero: without medals or decorations, but with a certain ability to survive. It was on his farm that I learned to use the combination hand clutch and brake on a John D
