It is not what we think about any of the tractors but what the mechanic thinks. Here he has this AC to get rid of. He sees a chance to get 2 tractors ans some money to boot. But then he knows the 2 tractors he is trying to get will require averaging out what the repair quotes are to $1,500 so he has the value of the AC plus the $1,550 repair cost to sell those olivers. Do you think he is going to sell those Olivers at a $1,500 loss or do you believe he thinks the Olivers are worth enough more to cover him putting in the value of the AC plus $1,500 and sell them for the value of the AC. BIG ANSWER IS NO, He will not take a loss like that so he thinks he can resell them after running for the $1,500 more than the AC so if he can do that witch way are either one worth more. It comes down to what he thinks he can sell the repaired Olivers for. Same price as the AC or LOOSE a lot of money. DON'T think he plans on doing that so he thinks he can get that much more for the Olivers to make money on them. It is all what the mechanick thinks he can make money on and having the price of the repair of the Olivers on top of his cost of the AC do you finally understand why the Olivers are worth more. You would not intententally put money into something with planes to loose that money. And if what you are saying the AC is worth more then he would be planning on loosing a big chunk of money. So what he thinks the Olivers are worth is only reason for him to consider a deal like that if he doesn't think the Olivers are worth more. Don't consider your likes or dislikes of either tractor but just how you would want to make or loose money on the deal, AC worth more or Olivers and plan on loosing money by getting the olivers?

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
