Looks like a Franklin Mint one to me, I have one in my collection just like it, I think I paid $130 fifteen years ago.

Lot's of sellers will jump their price 100x  to go on vacation.  Keeps from having to relist.  It's easier to change prices than end/relist an item.

For all the detail somebody went to to make this, WHY didn't they put a side delivery manifold on it like the original tractor?

They could be had either way, but I agree...the 45° exhaust looks "right" on a WC.

The same seller has one on steel priced the exact same. I have seen this one listed multiple times at the same price and always scratched my head wondering who's going to pay them that price. I guess he figures there's a sucker out there somewhere and buyer beware!

I think at that price it should be a scale model that runs.

 I had to dig out my parts book and look, yep, effective on engine W 106509 for WC and WF tractors, you could have an upright manifold with a muffler. Embarrassed
 I guess, ya can learn sompin new every day.

I think you could get it on a kerosene WD too, but it was available on the gas WC and WF.  Shocked

Defiantly a Franklin mint 1/12 scale. Very detailed but not worth that much by a mile.
Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed

I never did understand Franklin Mints sizing of 1/12 or 1/25 scale. NOBODY else makes things in those scales that I am aware of, so they don't fit with collections. JMO

Jim, Charlie, You are right.  It is a Franklin Mint model WC.  Note the hat on the front pedestal - that came with the model.
You are right about the scale.  I could never understand it either.  I have several Franklin Mint Models and they dwarf the others I have.
Can't believe the price.
Good Luck!
