That sounds cheap, but ....I know they ain't selling like they use to either, the last few years.
I'm thinking they are now old enough now, that they are not remembered (as new tractors) by our current retired generation. You'd have to be what, 70 years old now to of been born when these were built new (late production). And more like 85 or 90 years old now, to remember (or perhaps been driving) one of these tractors when new. That, I think has taken a big bite out of the market for them. And there is also a DIS-INTEREST in these tractors by younger generations that don't remember them when new, because they didn't have live PTO, 12 volt systems, factory 3 point, factory live 2 way hydraulics, power steering, the list goes on. Kind of no longer on anyone's bucket dream list to have a restored one of these sitting in thier shed, so to speak. Definitely not like there use to be. The high production numbers sure isn't helping neither, at this stage in the game.
Kind of sad, but it is what it is. Times change, people move on to newer stuff. Even on the older collector type of stuff. Rare stuff will always hold some kind of substantial market. But, some interest to own it is lost on some of that stuff too.
