Sale bill says it runs. Not much else. I don't know anything about WC's, but this looks pretty complete. Early serial # 18XX forgot the last 2 numbers,so a 34? What kind of price range do think it would fall into? For some reason it seems to be calling out to me, Wants to join my WD. ------------- 53WD |

| Looks better than a lot of them from that era. It sort of depends on what you plan to do with it. It's ability to do much work may be limited. If you just plan to resurrect it, work on it and play with it-go for it unless the $ gets crazy. I'm not a tractor ride person but I think it would be pushed to keep up without some serious tinkering. Good basic tractor and it looks like it may have a power lift, not useful these days. Good luck if you decide to pursue. Hopefully those with more knowledge will jump in. |

This tractor might bring $500 to $1000? Just my guess. Do you have a goal for the tractor? It looks like a survivor for sure. My opinion is itt will need some items if it is going to be improved, driven and enjoyed. Probably haven't helped you much.

I would probably say $700 would be the highest it would be worth. A local guy has a completely restored unstyled WC with cultivators that he has been trying to sell for several years, with no luck. |

The only goal would be to have it running well and take it to the Albert City Threshermans show,(we are just 15 miles from the grounds). And for more stuff for the kids to figure out what to do with someday. Otherwise just another toy in the yard. ------------- 53WD |

| Pretty straight unstyled WC,never know on price but with WC tractors this would be at the top of demand list.If I wanted it I'd be ready to pay $1000. |
