The inquiry about the value on a Fordson got me thinking. There was a Fordson at an area show a few years ago that had a pretty nice paint job on the sheet metal and body. The back story was that it was found in a barn back in the late 1970's or early 1980's before the collecting bug took hold. The owner got it for basically taking it off the property as dealers back then did not want trades that were not on rubber or lacked electric start. Scrap was not worth much either then. Heck, I can remember people being mad because a dealer would refuse a trade on a H or M because the dealer was already sitting on a half dozen such tractors. Anyways, this guy got a pretty straight tractor other than the back wheels sat in the dirt and even they cleaned up respectable if not perfect. Probably the biggest cost this fellow had was in prepping the tractor for paint and then applying the paint. But that is not the only example of picking up something for the cost of loading and transporting.
