 Topic: $800 Al's Charmer [not] Avondale, PA
Posted: 03 Nov 2020 at 7:49am |
This seller has been trying to sell this rough B for years. Not mine. Located near New Castle, DE Non-runner. Air cleaner near seat (bucket seat from car), mini spare front wheels, r.ust, cobbled trip bucket frame(?) With lift cylinder (snow plow(?)), rear tires look ok. Bucket on top of exhaust is a good sign - seriously. It keeps rain out. FB item # 269649507607218 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/269649507607218/

I've seen this scenario many times: Wife say's "Sell that piece of junk outback OR ELSE!!!"   Husband: Yes Dear 
Husband advertises said junk, AKA tractor with very high price and bad description and or poor spelling. 
Weeks go by and wife asks "WHY  is that junk still out back?"
Husband says: " I don't know why, but no one has called. I've had it advertised ever since you told me to get rid of it" (While secretly crossing his fingers behind his back.)

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

Well, it does come with tire chains and what looks to be good rims, so that's something

WHY do these adds always say " just needs carb cleaned and it will run great"... Its been for sale for 20 WEEKS !!! You could not find 2 hours to rebuild the carb and make it run ?? More to that story !!......... $200. would be a good counter offer.

A new twist on "ran when parked"?
Cleaning carb gives impression it'll run with just a wee bit of work.
Then again, it may be true. Crank it over while spraying some gas into carb air intake to see if it starts and runs.
A rag with gas jammed into carb throat should let engine run for a few minutes if all else is ok.

At least the second one has wire wheels, steel wheel rear fenders, and is a little more presentable. $900 is bit much for that one, but yer' right, the first one is $100-$200 buck beauty! LOL! Steve@B&B

Yeah about 4 years ago I bought up 2 Bs that looked a little better than the one at the top for $250. Both were none runners but I looked at them in person (found out what real shape they were in) before bringing them home.
