My son got his 52 b running again today after we think 10 years or so, but the mice were in the clutch and of course it is stuck. Any way to free it short of splitting ??? he has tried running and popping.

Have a 38 B low serial number, mostly original, runs like a top, good good rubber good paint, hand start, hand brakes , nelson under hood muffler. What should should it be worth???

Assuming the 52 B clutch gets freed up, like new rears, so so fronts, electric, foot brakes, all there but rusty sheet metal, runs out perfect. What should it be worth ?????

Not sure what you mean by running and popping but if you drive it in high gear with the clutch pushed in and stomp on the brakes you may pop it loose, it worked on a TO30 I had. Price of the early one can vary depending on how early it is but there is a limited market of people who are willing to hand start tractors. As far as the newer one I paid $600 for my 1950 B with a belly mower but I'll admit that was a good deal.

I unstuck an old 4500 ford backhoe clutch by removing the starter and soaking the clutch with penetrating oil , reinstalled the starter,and then drove it around with the clutch pedal tied down and stomped on the brakes a few times. [ Be careful you got plenty of room to do this] On a B you might be able to spray enough penetrating oil up through the the bottom access cover on the torque tube.
