Seems I remember seeing this tractor at a show quite a few years back in Michigan. Def. a one of a kind but dont really see it being worth that much to me?

I remember it being on ebay a few months ago. I think his asking price was $60,000 then so at least he went down some on the price lol.

Probably be as close to a NOS tractor as you could get.

It was on auction 10 plus years ago also - guess what it didn't sell.

Judging by that ad, it's still in Michigan. It says location is St. Johns Michigan and that 989 area code is a Michigan code. Very interesting find. What you might call a time capsule.

From ad: "has never been in a field nor has any implements ever been connected to it." So why is the paint wore off the end of the drawbar ?

Paint off the drawbar could be from clevis/chain etc. I'd say well worth the asking price. I'd buy it in an instant if I needed a tractor that size. Glad to see someone had the foresight to do something like this. Good luck, hope it finds a good home.

It's north of me about 30 miles. I've been there a time or two but don't remember seeing it.

Sounds like it would be full of mouse nests to me. The price sounds reasonable but around here nobody would spend 60k for a 30 year old tractor thats 2wd. The people around here using 2wd tractors are the ones that cant afford the price of a new one or the rare people like me that enjoy spending the day in a 7060 cab rather than a new one.
