What specifically are you looking for? I've got a gaggle of N fords and a lovely VAC case in my back yard...
Actually around here in NY the older and bigger stuff is kinda hard to find. I have seen a Silver King locally, but mostly what you see is M, H, A, B and Cub in the red lines, Allis d-14 and the next size down, and JD A and B's. We never seemed to have any of the R deeres, Minnie Moes, or teh big ol steam tractors in this area, at least since 1970 when I first started looking at the tractors in fields.....
Out west the farms were larger and therefore the tractors were also bigger.
Macfaddens auction in Sharon Springs usually has a few western tractors in his auctions, if you want someone else to do the hauling and searching for ya. Prices are.....Not dirt cheap but not too bad. All depends on who else wants your tractor.Just be sure you know what you are bidding on.Inspect it well, because once you buy it it's yours.....I bid on a 2N at his auction that was listed in all the flyers as restored....It sure wasn't.(Still it was a fair price for a war model tractor, and nobody seemed to realize it was one.)
