If you reach a point where you are in the market for a wide front end for this tractor, my email is open. Have no idea where you are located and that would matter.

Everything is good, was repainted and did an excellent job on it. I'd say it prolly looks better than when it was new. Everything is on it is accurate as far as the restoration. sheetmetal is like glass. not a jockey just a guy who bought it to restore but health problems is causing him to sell his property and the things on it. It's only been in a couple parades since it was restored. def not one to go work fields with. he doesn't really have a price on it.

I am sorry, I can't venture even a guess. All info you have provided seems to be on the "looks" of the tractor. On a "complete restoration" it is very important to know what kind of engine rebuild he done. From what you are saying, maybe he just prssure wahsed the engine and painted it. Did block get cleaned by machine shop, shaved, magnafluxed, oil pump? Crank checked and turned? New sleeves, pistons, pins, rods, inserts? Was head rebuilt completely by machine shop, with magnaflux, springs, guides, seals, shaved, freeze plugs, etc? What done to camshaft? What about clutch plate, pressure plate, throwout? PTO clutch and PTO brake? Trans seals? Shifters? Brakes? Hydraulic pump? Water pump, thermostat? Starter, alternator? If he is an individual that did the restoration, then he will have receipts/lists/machine shop bill, etc to support the rebuild. This could go on and on, but these are the important itmes - - anyone can paint. Tom

Depends. Is it original, or restored? Original owner or tractor jockey? Has it been completely repainted or some original? Hours? Tire condition? Repair records? Maintenance records? Picture? How much is he asking? Tom

if it looks as good as you say it does and doesnt have alot of hrs on it i would guess between $4000/$5000 dollars thr narrow front seems to knock a little off the price . ive seen 2 or 3 this win ter for sale with wide fronts on them for around $4000/$4500 and they were rough and i mean rough i wouldnt gave $3000 for any of them so it sounds like a ptretty decent deal if alls well and sound RICK
