Not an expert like some of these guys but I"d say it"s worth what you"d be willing to pay. If you just want to save a bit of history since every one that goes for scrap is one more not available to your children it"s up to you. An old stuck tractor is a money pit. Worse than that even . But being stuck is the cheap part as it may not take much to get it unstuck or it may be so corroded on the inside you won"t get it unstuck with c-4 in the cylinders. It"s the tires that will bring the most money to someone else"s pocket. Take a look into the main frame through the oil fill hole and see what the gears look like. If they are rusted and pitted offer em 100 bucks . That tractor , even if you get it running , will most likely always be noisy when moving. Same goes for both of em . But if you think you can get em unstuck offer em more, rims for a M aren"t hard to come by , at least around here , and paint isn"t important unless you are compensating for something that"s lacking in your life. All the rest is nickle and dime , but it all adds up. I can"t see buying any old tractor as an investment so I hope you aren"t looking to make money on em. If so collect old Harley"s instead.
