Hello, I would like some help figuring out some pricing points for my 651 Workmaster, it runs, needs a new ignition (able to start with wiring bypass). I have 7 implements that I want to sell with it. I am located in northern California, here are a few pics below. (I used the gas can rig/set up because I did not know how long the gas that was in the tank or what debris or water might be in there.) Thank you for any guidance you may be able to provide, this is not my expertise.

Nice looking tractor, and equipment. As others have said, you'll get a lot more if you clean it up, and get it running. Cleaning up the equipment too will help (get them out of the weeds). There are several
folks on this forum that know more than I about these old Fords... But you might want to verify the model and year with the serial number. The odd thing I see is it seems to have a front hood emblem from a
earlier Ford NAA Jubilee (google image the two tractors, and you'll see what I mean). But I don't think the NAA ever had a 5 speed transmission. The other two interesting things I see are the air intake (it
seems to have an optional precleaner?) and it has inner front wheel weights (someone might think those are worth their weight in gold). as far as numbers, around here, running good, your 651 would bring at
least $5k (without front wheel weights). Perhaps a bit of a discount, if the wiring and gauge issues are significant. Good luck.

Agree with Steve to check the numbers above the starter to determine what you actually have, I'd also check the casting numbers on the block which can tell you something about the engine. Grill is from NAA/100 series, rear fenders from the 001 series. If it is a 651, that means a 5 speed transmission, which the shifter shows to be the case, but also a single stage clutch and no live PTO, which in my mind makes the tractor much less desirable. Front wheel weights are desirable, but worth considerably less than gold.
Tires look good which is important in pricing. Tho I'm not that far from Steve in IL, from my watching the market, I'd judge the tractor by itself would sell at around $3K in running condition. California market might be considerably different. Pricing the package of tractor and implements is an interesting exercise. I guess if I were tasked to move the lot I'd start high and do a 'Dutch auction' type of thing where the price is reduced at regular intervals until it sells.
