I would have trouble letting it go for that price mostly because it's family. On the other hand if you dont use it and have no other family interested it might be good to let some have it that will enjoy it.

I just got this one for $2600. Needs tires all around, has new manifolds, wiring harness, tach and cable, radiator and 2 starter weights and 1 stack. It started out he was asking $4000, then $3500, $3000. I offered $2500 and he said he had to have $2600. That's not a bad price if you want to sell it.
 
That's probably ballpark price. You don't say why you'd consider selling it though. It's your business, but I'll tell you what I told a neighbor when he was thinking about selling some land and using the money to build a pole barn. I told him to borrow the money to build the barn. Once the land is sold, you'll never get the chance to buy it back.
 
Well I let her go. It needed a manifold and rear tires and I was not going to put money into it. Have too many tractors. But it was a nice easy starting running unit. I stick with the other red ones. and it was a gas burner.
 
Nothing wrong with that. You can't keep them all! Come spring, I plan to finish up a couple, paint them and send them down the road. I'd like to keep them, but have no use for them anymore. Just setting around is hard on them in my opinion, better to let someone get some good out of them. Sell some and buy another one to work on.
 
Just for the record Rustred is using cdn $ which are about 25% lower than the usd so at $3500 that works out to less than 3k usd asking price. A lot of higher end farm and construction equipment heads south every month with the relative strength of the usd vs cdn right now.
