My point for the original past was that people are starting to treat antique tractors like muscle cars: put a lot in "em, add up your time the tack on some profit and advertise them for stupid money. I was pointing out by using a Super H as an example that unless you have some real rare bird of a tractor, each model kinda has an upper limit what ya could expect it to sell for...my experience is that a well tended nice Super H is gonna be worth closer to $3500 than it is $7250 no matter what"s been done to it! I could have grabbed a pic of one of those New Hampshire tractors that get put on here periodically (the $7000 JD 70 for instance) and compared that to ours, or one of the "Expo Quality" late As or Bs that guys are asking $5000 plus for and compared them to one of ours, or that $5500 Super C that was on here a lil bit ago.

In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
