    Posted: 21 Sep 2016 at 6:58am
My Dad has Duetz Allis 5230 2wd with turf tires and a loader. Has original dirt bucket and snow bucket for it. Also had a Loftness snowblower and a 6' blade. We made a set of chains for it out of a set of road grader chains. He replaced the head gasket a few years ago. It has spent most of it's life inside. No dents and hardly any scratches. With Dad's failing health due to cancer, it may be going up for sale in the near future. Just kinda wondering what it would be worth and what would be the best way to sell it to get the best price for Mom.

Sorry I don't have any pics of it right now. I forgot to get some when I was there on Saturday. Not sure when I will get back down to see them.

First, please accept my condolences for your father, watching someone close loose their health is heartbreaking.
I would think the best guide would be one of the online sales places like Fastline or Tractorhouse.  At least you would have several choices, depending on how many tractors of that model are listed.  I think the snow blower would be a separate item, as someone might be looking for only a snow blower and not a tractor.

Dad won't sell it to me. He thinks the 2 I have are too many. And he doesn't know about my HD5B.
But yeah, it would be nice to have a tractor with live hydraulics for moving snow.

Now that is a plan. It will probably work and in the end he will be happy to see it being used

When I was there Saturday he had us put the snow bucket and the snow blower on it even though he can't get on it, let alone run it. No possibility of borrowing it.
