And if you were to try to talk them into reasonable money, yup, you just wanna rip me off..
My uncle had a SC Case.. all said and done, it was ROUGH.. But back 30+ ago when he parked it it had new rear tires (which are still good tread, but about shot from weather checking) and the drive chains were new.. It has to be worth a grand, right?
So I try to get it bought.. well, now the engine is stuck, like I said tires are about shot (even though they were new), and he parked it because "I think the mag was goin out or something.. it's been so long ago I can't remember anymore" he says..
Well, I think to myself, if I invested tires and the new drive chains, I would have had a bad mag fixed, so there's probably something else.. Like it's just plum wore out.. So the negotiations begin.. He wants to hold firm, I wanna haggle him down some.. The tractor was in the family for a long time, sure would be nice to save it..
This went on for a long time.. we just couldn't meet on a price.. He scrapped it.. and he says "Well, at least they didn't try to steal it from me!"
Some people ya just can't reason with, but every now and again ya find the person who says "I just want someone to take it and get it goin again and keep it alive and love it like they did".. and they give ya a good deal on it.. I've been fortunate with one or 2 of those kinda guys.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
