I really don't get the fascination with those tractors. I'd take a 436 over a 550 10 times out of 10 and twice on Sunday! If that makes sense.

| I have found on Mecums that some stuff goes at below or right at value and then other stuff they go hog wild and nuts over and in my opinion spend way too much on it. Especially some of that green stuff. |

The 170 had 2400hrs and did sell cheap. Thursday the John Deere's sold reasonable. Some are already on Polk's sale coming up. I bought a John Deere 420 H and John Deere A high Crop |

| A 220 cab fwa sold for 54,000. Saturday on RFD a 6080 fwa brought 24,000. Seems like some restored stuff don't bring much. I'm starting to like the smaller 100 series, but don't have a need for one. |

So,are these just collectors or are farmers buying older tractors to get away from electronics? I’m seeing a lot of farmers restore, refurbish older tractors due to maintenance and reliability issues with newer stuff. ------------- 1968 B-208, 1976 720 (2 of them)Danco brush hog, single bottom plow,52" snow thrower, belly mower,rear tine tiller, rear blade, front blade, 57"sickle bar,1983 917 hydro, 1968 7hp sno-bee, 1968 190XTD |

Even fully restored it would be a big ask to get $100,000. ------------- WD(NF), WD45(WF), WD45D(WF), XT190D(WF), Model U, Gleaner C, All Crop 60, Rotobaler |

In a world where a NF assembly for a 190 brings 10K,100K for the 220 ain't to far fetched. |

| There was another 220 FWA no cab, nicely restored that brought $82,500 a couple of years ago. |

| Fred, 220's did not come with a water filter. Industrial engine? |
Posted By: DrAllis
Date Posted: 03 Apr 2021 at 7:33am
| Water filter kits were available and that one is an add-on because of heater hose connections. A factory kit like on a 7050-60-80 were hard lines. 220's also didn't have an intercooler. |

I was watching Matt sell that 220 4wheel drive and it looked to me like selling money was $57,000 from the way he asked for that money at the end. I see Matt action weekly and have learned to read him. great guy, him and his dad did my farm retirement sale! ------------- AC from the start of my families farming career till the end! |

Fred, All 220's should look like that. An intercooler looks cool on a 220. Mine has a functioning intercooler on an industrial engine in my 220 2wd. The one in the picture is also functioning because using the correct waterpump requires the alternator to be moved to the right side. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

Calvin n Doc that's what I was referring the intercooler, I put my fair share of filter kits on rebuilds right out of AC boxes in the 80's , ------------- He who dies with the most toys is, nonetheless ,still dead. If all else fails ,Read all that is PRINTED. |
