A good friend and I where just talking yesterday about this. I think many of our old tractors will not be worth much in the years to come. Not many of the younger guys grew up with them and don"t have the interest. Plus these younger guy don"t have the income to collect them with raising a family these days.
We are reminiscing about a time gone by. We also have selective memory about it too. My first tractor was JD "G", no power steering or three point hitch. I was not sad the day it when down the road after I replaced it with a JD 3020. If you had to use our old iron day in and day out it would not be as fun. The newer tractors are better/handier to use.

I could have used the set on a JD 2520 I have.
