Most of those tractors were used until they would move no more under their own power. Or some internal noise couldn't be ignored any longer.
A 200lb taper-loc flywheel is $550.00 plus shipping. If some hack hasn't welded the flywheel right to the crank. Sometimes some new grade 8 bolts, hardned washers and tall nuts torqued to 325 ft lbs will work.
Some people will never sell anything. They go on for 20+ years believing that old car,engine, boat, tractor etc in their yard. Is going to be their restoration project when so extra cash comes in. Sad to say when the estate is sold. A machine that ran when parked is now a ruined piece of scrap.
Others won't sell because they don't know the market price and are afraid of being taken advantage of. Other think because it's green, the price is twice for a stuck tractor of what it cost new.
