From here it looks like it's worth $50 a ton.tires old and worn rust at the valve stems usually much worse than it looks after you take the tires off. No possable way of checking if anything is useable two differant paint colors

I'd say see if you can find the name plates on ebay or something. That would be a PAIN to drag home just for name plates. Especially with the front tire situation

If that was closer to me it would be in my yard now.
I have a 149 cu.in. from a Power Unit just looking for a use.
What better place than a D-15.
Isn't the WFE all there, just hidden in the weeds?
Has starter, belt pulley, and a spare ring gear hanging on the brake pedal !

Save it! Offer scrap price and try to meet in the middle. It could likely cost too much to get it running again but there are some good parts there. If you get it and part it out please post on here what you have for sale.

I'd offer 10% over scrap and have trailer and equipment with me(shows you're serious). Depending on access it could be a 1 hr of 5hr job to get onto trailer.

Tyler, we won't call you that just because your and Dakota Dave's opinion of the value is a bit less, I just see some parts I could possibly use or might need in the future. Besides, I have had claim to that designation way before you. Also, depending on the condition of the front end it could be a real pain in the rear to load and unload.

I know Hubert. I gotta "poke poke" where I can. Personally I wouldn't try to load it where and how it sits. Seems like it would be a PAIN. I believe by the time you got it home that $800 would be closer to $1400

There doesn't appear to be an engine under that hood

It'd take me about 5 minutes to load it with my tilt bed trailer with the 12,000lb winch on it.

I emailed them and asked if there was an engine and what they were asking for it.
No $800

I'd ask them what scrap yard they're hauling it to after nobody wants it for 800

My local scrap yard would charge way more than $800 for it... the owner says he likes to "help the farmers" by cutting them deals, but I tried to buy an old IH disc from them once, and I believe they wanted $500 for the little ol' thing! It was just an old drag disc with rope trip adjustable gangs.
