HI,
I have a chance to buy a 1954 Ford NAA that is in very nice shape. It ran a year ago, won't start now, but when I looked at it it cranked over. The owner was told it needs a new ignition switch. She's 70 years old, they are the original owners. The tractor is still 6 volt, was always serviced by a shop, the top end was redone at some point, maybe an overhaul, she wasn't sure. The tires are all good, the metal is all perfect except for a quarter size dent on one of the legs. There's not many leaks that I can see.
My question is what would this tractor be worth or what would be a fair offer. I may be able to get her to get it running, but not sure.
She's asking $1000, I offered $500, she came back with $875. I think there may be some more room to negotiate. What does anyone think?

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
