 Topic: AC7060 on eBay

69 hours?
$59,500!
I guess that would be cheaper than a new tractor but wouldn't the seals and stuff go bad from sitting?

holy crap! for that kind of money, you'd think they would take better pictures! And some description might be nice! Check out their other items. A plane for over a cool mil. they are probably brokers of stolen goods! very suspicious.

Talked to the owner today. He was an AC, Dealer. Got it for himself and then decided he wanted a MFWD instead so he's never used it or sold it. Says he's 83 years old. Its probably only worth half that to me though.

Here is the link and to me it looks like a photo is from '82 if you look close I believe it has been scanned so that makes me think it is an old photo. Something still seems a little fishy about it I would need better dated digital photos before I would make an offer and the offer wouldn't be near that price. If they was serious about that they would have better photos and details. http://cgi.ebay.com/1982-ALLIS-CHALMERS-7060-Tractor_W0QQitemZ280473795312QQcmdZViewItemQQptZTractors?hash=item414d8a7af0

The old guy told me he would send me some pictures in the mail. Sounds like it may be ligitamate as he started talking about the AC strike that suposidly the russians started and on and on and on about the demise of AC. He really sounded like a guy that was pre the computer age. I'm betting I'll get some black and white poloroids in the mail this week. then again i could be wrong.

I dont think its old enough yet to be worth double the new price.

This tractor was on E-bay a few years ago and was bid up to $20,000, which was below the reserve. I looked at it at the time. It is at Patterson and Son's, the former A-C dealer in St. Johns, MI. This was one of the last new tractors they had to sell, so they kept it. I didn't look to see if it was PD or PS, but it a new tractor as represented.

It's an interesting thought. If it were an 8030, 8050, 8070 PS with that many hours I'd think $60,000 wouldn't be too far off maybe $50,000. Try buying a new 130+ 2wd, Powershift tractor and your going to be around $95,000+ Thing is you can get them with maybe 1500 hours for around $60,000.
I'd think if it's a PS it's probably in the $40,000 range tops. You can find completely gone through 8030, 4WD, PS for around $30,000 with $5,000 hours on them. I'd be a little concerned with seals leaking after all that time and I'm not sure what else would be up.
There are a few tractors out there like this with very low hours. I think one dealer had a 170 or something they kept on display and only ran it maybe a hour a year or something like that. I think those would be worth $20,000 as their pretty useful and still fairly modern for that size. Trouble with a 7060 is that only the big boys need something like that it's not really a collector tractor per se.
