I'm looking at Model C between 1947 and 1950 with rt and lt pick-up plows attached. Also has front side weights and drawbar. Battery box is missing and converted from magneto to distributor (12V). Metal in good shape with rubber about 80%.
Forgot to mention it has a narrow front. Wants $1,600.00.
Any idea to it's value? Thanks. ------------- Joe's 1939 Model WC, 1940 Model RC, 1944 & 1950 Model C's, B-125 PU |

I am really not the one to ask for I am cheap. I only wait for the bargains to come by. It sounds like it has a few extras that have some value but as to what that value is I have no idea. I guess the question should be asked how bad do you need it or how bad do you want it? I have my eye on a wide front C that the ol boy wants to trade for two lawn mowers, but think the mowers are worth more then 800 dollars. been looking at a CA the ol boy wants to sell for $750 but again none of them are a need but a want. |

| OK If it was mine and not much of anything wrong with it. Offer me $2500 and it's yours. |

offer them $1200 maybe? A bit steep for a C. The plows are cool though.. ------------- Thanks Most Bad Government has grown out of Too Much Government- Thomas Jefferson |

weights $200 plows $250
You are looking at a $1150 pricetag for a C tractor. For our area, that may be $200-$300 high...
Of course I have not seen the tractor, maybe you don't want to quibble over a few benjamins. ------------- Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.

Hey, Junkman, if you aren't interested in that C, and he's still got it toward the first of September, let me know. I might be interested.

Sounds like you got a fair price. Like John says, let's see some "before" shots.... ------------- Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment. From listening comes wisdom and from speaking comes repentance. Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise. |
