What's a fair price for a restored model B w/hand crank, Allis motor, and new tires?

There are too many variables when the word restored is used, could be from $500 to way less than you put into it depending on a wash and paint or a full blown restoration. Got any pics?

That's what I'm saying, I easily have $3000 into my C and in reality you would have a hard time getting 1/2 that if it wasn't for the steel wheels. In my opinion I would be more interested in an original tractor because I've seen too many restored tractor that still have old grease covered with paint on the oil pan. You restore them because you enjoy it, not to make money.

Got a little off topic there. New tires are a huge plus. You say hand crank, is it an early one, maybe low serial #, that would help. Steel wheels would be great. Maybe it's a wartime tractor.
