: I FOUND A SUPER A WITH VERY LOW HOURS. I DO KNOW THIS TRACTOR. IT LOOKS LIKE HECK, BUT IT HAS ONLY BEEM USED 5-10HRS A YR. OVER THE LAST 20 YRS. IT JUST NEEDS TIRES AND COSMETIC WORK PAINT, ETC. ITS IN A HUNTING CAMP IN CANADA AND COMING HOME THIS SPRING BECAUSE THE CAMP WAS SOLD. I HAVE FIRST OPTION TO PURCHASE IT. WHAT IS A FAIR PRICE TO PAY? IN READING AND ASKING DEALERS THERE IS SUCH A WIDE PRICE RANGE. THANKS Well, unfortunately, it is always tough to give someone an idea of what something is worth without actually being able to see it. ......but, I don't like the normal "it's worth whatever someone will pay (or buy it for)", so I will try to help. Judging by your description it is in need of some work. Tires alone are not cheap, so that has to be a big factor as well. If it runs good and everything works, (especially the hydraulics), and the metal is pretty straight, but just needing sanded and a little elbow grease, then it is most likely worth in the $1,400 to $1,800 range. This tractor, if restored, should be worth in the $3,000 range. By the way, I am going by prices I have seen in PA and some other close Northeastern states, someone else may say different depending on their geographical location, I'm sure. One thing is a fact though, when it comes to antique tractors, the smaller they are the more they are worth. Cubs, A's and Super A's are desireable and the price you pay for them proves it. Do you have any idea what the asking price will be approx.?? You might be able to get a great deal on it, ya never know. Hope this info has helped at least a little.... let us know how you make out.
