How many are still running ?What is there Weight ?How Tuff is the engine ?Mine spun a bearing thinking off getting it to run again to see how long it will run before it blows up.

DONT do that. My father has been looking for one for a few years. If you are close to Iowa let me know if you are willing to sell.

How do you figure $1500.00 for scrap price? Price per ton,to its weight, would be half of that.
I hear this all the time as a buyer of salvage parts tractors. Your scrap buyer is paying like $500.00 a ton. "Clean" machinable cast iron [ like a stripped/ bare engine block/rearend is $350.00 to 300.00 a ton depending where you go,and how many tons, and how clean. A complete tractor, less tires and oils and antifreeze, and you gotta haul it, would fetch about $225 to $275.00 a ton.
If it was close to southern Minn I would bid 1000.00 cold cash, w/o rear tires and rims as stated on Ebay,and come get it myself. I think I own about 9 600's. Some run some don't, gave 4000.00 for the best one, years ago. None are restored. Don't be madd at my post, not ment to stir the pot.

Ol'e D-C-741 isn't getting over $200 for whole steel. Hey DC!! Is that the 600 you had on Ebay with no tin or wheels??

D-C-741 · May 20, 2012

Mine has Everything But The Rear Tires&Rims .All the Tin Is On It .Whole as you call it is $250 & Short is $300 at TEET's/ Weistmans Owego,is $335 Short.This is The only way We Sell[ Short ]As for my Asking price = 3 Heads $200 each/ starter $ 100 /Injection pump $100 /Radiator $ 100 /= about $900 /now the rest for $600. Now just how far Wrong is my price ?

Who is gonna give $200 for a wore out head that may be cracked?

Don L. · May 20, 2012

Those heads are high prone to be cracked. The injection pump is the same. Do you sell with a warrenty? I do. Price as stated as scrap per a the scale at 1500.00.Show me the sale ledger.
[Not to still pot]. 1500 -don;t work at the scale, as stated. This a world wide forum, and Facts are Facts.
