| I have my tractor for sale for a while with very little interest. I suspect I will need to part it out. What is the engine worth? |

Your tractor but would hate to see it parted, saw pictures and thought it looked good, could be interested but have to solve some health issues. So do as you see fit, it is yours. ------------- 1945 C, 1949 WF and WD, 1981 185, 1982 8030, unknown D14(nonrunner) |

| Well one reason for no interest in it is the price. I sold my 200 2 yrs. ago and the most I could get was $7000. But it had cab and a very good working air conditioner. After 6 months I bought it back for $7500. because I could find nothing even close to 100 HP. for under $20,000. and my 200 was in perfect condition. It is a late model with the gated PD control which is by far superior for ease of operation. The "non cab" tractor market is not so good it seems. Have you considered lowering the price? |

Lon, I think that thing would sell in my neck of the woods. Maybe list it on C-list a little further from home. I'd like to have it myself but don't have room for anymore tractors right now. |

| I tried selling my series 3 all winter and half of spring. Mine needed a hydraulic pump and could use different tires down the road but has 20hrs on a a overhaul with pictures and invoices totaling over $4500. I started at $4k then dropped to $3k after 2 months with no interest another month went by I finally had a guy come out he agreed to take it for $3,000 and we made arrangements for him to pick it up that weekend. The next day he texts saying he didn't know hydraulic pumps were $1200 so he says he will take it for $2000 I declined. My take is that if the best I was offered in three and a half months was $2k it can sit in the back yard and look pretty until I get around to it for that. I think it's hard selling pre 7000 series right now |

Back in 2018 when my Dad passed away, all of my siblings were either indifferent (didn't care) or chomping at the bit to sell off his 1966 190XTD he had owned since 1970/1971. My Grandpa bought it FOR my Dad when Dad joined him on the family farm. When Dad sold the farm in 1989, he kept all of his AC tractors (10) just to have and to fiddle with. Later on, as his health deteriorated, he sold most of them off 1 by 1 until just the 3 "original to the farm" tractors were left. In 2015, we had finalized the deal that gave me the WD and WD45. It was always my desire to keep the 3 together just as Dad had done and he knew that. As we all surrounded him during his final days, he made the decision that if I still wanted her, then she was to go to me-period. All of my siblings and my step-mom too easily accepted and then also honored his decision on this and I will forever be indebted to them for this kindness. Most of Dad's other stuff was sold off with the proceeds going to our step-mom. The last "work" that the XT did in NY was to move the few remaining pieces of Dad's equipment to the local auction yard for their next auction. As I made those four round trips, I did ponder the idea of leaving her there too rather than having to deal with getting her hauled down to KY like I did the other 2 a few years prior. After that last haul, I had a quick chat with the auctioneer (who knew my Dad well) and asked him point blank what he thought the XT would bring on his auction. When he said he would be surprised if it went over 3K, my mind was made up for me. He also went even further to suggest that since it was a family tractor, don't let it go anyway. I knew that Dad would never sell it for that much and neither will I. The auctioneer even helped me with a contact for a hauler and 1 week after running NY roads hauling equipment, the XT was getting unloaded at my house in KY. My wife and kids do not have the time with and attachment to the XT that I do. They have my permission to sell it for whatever they can get out of it after I'm gone but it won't leave 1 second before that time. ------------- "My name is Lionel and I'm an Allisoholic" |
