I am going to look at a WD45diesel tomorrow. From the picture it looks in fair to good shape.It does have a wide front end and a 3 point conferson on it. Tires look good and the guy says it has some new guages on it. Now for the bad news it does not start reason do not know, he bought it not long ago and now does not have the time to work on it so he says.So with this little information what is this worth. I do not know even if the engine turns over. So let me know what you think. Thanks Dave

If you're lucky all it needs is the fuel system primed. The PSB injection pump is expensive to work on. Plan on at least $1K to rebuild it, more if it was seized and the engine was cranked.

Without it running, you don't know how much $$$ you will have to put into the engine. Mine cost me $4500 to have the engine completely rebuilt, which whatever could be wrong was. I didn't even have the pump gone through and that ended up being good, which was shear luck as the tractor sat outside not running by my dad's for close to 20 years. I would say if it was complete and had all the diesel stuff, but engine not running, 1500-2000 tops and to me that would only be if all the sheetmetal is really nice and tires are really nice all the way around. If it has power steering, that would be more as the diesel setup is completely different then the gas one as it runs off of the back of the generator. Without it running, you could have a real deal, or a real bucket of crap. I would look at it as a high end WD45 parts tractor. I know they are rare, but you can stick some real money into them and if you need another block etc., they're not the easiest to find.
