Probably not a whole lot. There are a couple of special brackets required to mount that mower. One under axle bracket with a special swivel eye in it, one on the rocker on the back of the tractor and two special extensions that go on your lift links. You'd have another $100-$150 into it to find those if they didn't come with it or a bunch of time making them yourself. Then I'm told they were a bear to mount but did cut good after all that. I had one a few years ago that I never did get running. The rock guards on it were all nearly new so I robbed them off of it to put on a Ford 501 sickle mower. Sold the belt pully guard on Ebay for nearly $50 - some collector I suppose - and the rest of it I traded for a 12 pack of Pale Ale which I no longer have. I wouldn't give you $25 for one unless it had ALL the brackets, etc then I might give $150. If I needed a sickle mower I would hold out for a 501 which are pretty common, much easier to mount and a good, reliable mower. Also, those Dearborn mowers wouldn't fit any Fords beyond the NAAs as they changed the 3 point geometry then. FWIW I just acquired the special under axle brackets for stabilizer bars and the top rocker bracket this weekend. The right one doubles as the special bracket for the mower. I will sell them once I research what to ask for them.
