Saw an M crawler sitting on a trailer yesterday with a for sale sign. Since I'm keeping an eye out for a small crawler to toy with in that size, I stopped to look at it. From a distance I thought it might be a D2, but then I saw the remanents of the orange paint. The sign wasn't very informative, it just gave the phone # and said "runs good, $1000 OBO"It has a front mounted hydraulic pump going to a 2 spool valve. Question is, is this the going rate for this tractor, in running but rough looking condition?

Rex is correct about condition of undercarage. If the pins and bushings are bad, you can have them turned, and build up the sprockets by welding. You are probably looking at 200.00 each side to turn pins and bushings, if you deliver tracks to shop. Then you are looking at around 50.00 for track bolts each side. If you are not going to use the tractor a lot you will probably be ok with what the tractor has. If the bushings are worn through I would walk away. 1000.00 in not a bad price if motor and undercarrage are in good shape.I have several of these M's they are a good tractor. They will pull a 8 ft, disc all day long.

Just started my M today after a three month restoration. The main thing to look for is condition of the track.If its wore out the tractor is only good for parts.

Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
