Well... I have my ideas on value of any of this old stuff. Personally I put the value at scrap. Value is only determined by a collector and a seller. Unless it has true value as an implement for either making money or creating something that does generate revenue it is a box of pretty rocks. The value is determined at the time of sale. You do have prettier rocks than the majority of F-30 owners so possibly you can persuade someone to pay more for your box of rocks. I'm not being snooty it is just that except for personal value for sentimental reasons, or to fit into a collection they are somewhat worthless..... but a lot of fun. Remember people going nuts over Cabbage patch kids? Welcome to the garage sale item of the year now.
That being said the two ducked f-30s I have seen sell this year, unrestored with non leaking cracks in the block went for $2,000 and $2,500. I saw one advertised for $3,500. If there is a crack it will most likely be behind the carborator. I don't know what I would sell mine for. It isn't for sale (Like yours) so at this time it is priceless. So is yours. Now if my refrigerator is bare and my job is on the skids I'll be very reasonable to deal with. :? )
Your local automotive paint shop can get you paint or a NAPA. Somewhere on this site I saw the mixing numbers but I don't know them right off.
Good luck! It looks to be a nice tractor and will be a lot of fun for you!
