I am normally a farmall guy but I found a VAC just a mile away from my house. I have been thinking about starting another project tractor and this looks interesting. Tractor runs nice, sheet metal good shape, radiator and carborator rebuilt. Tires not very good but hold air. Ring gear on flywheel is missing some teeth. The block is cracked behind the carborator and has been patched with JB weld, seems to be holding. Price $650. Location is Wisconsin. What do you guys think, good deal?

Duane, I agree with C.Amick the price sounds a little high if it has a cracked block. Not unless you have a spare engine? I have this photo of a Vac Case my friend bought early this spring. It�s been setting for a couple of years or so. It�s not setup just missing an air cleaner and it had a bad water pump. My friend asked me if it is worth $300 & I said ya can�t buy much for that kind of money now days. He still was hesitating on buying it. I told him if he not going to that I would. I know he got a good deal on it. Just some people just have all the luck I guess. Don�t run across them deals everyday. Take Care. Mike

I have both Farmalls and Cases. That sounds like a pretty good deal, but I would check to see if there is any coolant in the bottom of the oil pan by draining out just a little oil. There could be some internal cracks as well. I don't think it's worth the price, if you have to go find another block for it.

Sounds like a good deal, even if it does not have the eagle hitch,, VAC's are great little tractors..
