I paid 800 for my 38 that ran like a top, had good fenders, new front rubber and excelent rear. I also bought another 38 for 400 that was stuck but had good rubber, and excelent sheet metal. ------------- 1938 B, 1945 B, 1941 IB, 1949 C, 2 1938 WCs, 3 1950 WDs, 1951 WD, 2 1955 WD45, 1957 D-14 |

Id hate to guess what those front hubcaps are worth. That was an expensive option! Honestly I'd say $600-$800, but then the tires are worth that. I passed on a nice '35 a while back with spokes all around for $750. Joe ------------- Life is simpler when you plow around the stump. |

Those spinner hubcaps are worth $400! The tractor don't have fenders, but if he still has them then the tractor, running would probably be worth $1000.

| Thanks for the ideas, maybe he will sell without the hubcaps. We plan to stop at the GOTO in Gray, TN on the way north. |

| You guys are tearing me up, I'm feeling bad, I have a 1934, restored on steel, bought it in 1965, have been considering selling it. But I would need at least $4500. I have the opportunity to buy back a 1973 190 XT that my 89 year old father bought new. would need the money to buy it. |

Chuck; We bought this early 35 on steel, serial # 7237 for $1700. My dad bought it the day me and my son were at the GOTO Milton. Didn't take much to get it running, starts on the third crank every time. Hope to do a complete resto in the spring.

Brian, Thats a nice straight 35'. Keep your eye out for a radiator like this and you will have the correct one for your restoration-notice the line doesn't extend down and go back and it matches the straight hood.

WC; I must be missing something, my rad looks just like yours. The hood strap bolts up the same. And it has the 2 rivets just below the strap. I likely wont get another rad, as this one is in exellent shape. But I would like to know what I am missing in the pictures.
Thanks Brian

Compare the raised line on the side of the radiator. The 35'and prior with the straight hood has the raised line on the radiator only going half way-straight line. THe late 35's to the end of the unstyled serial numbers extend another 6" or so and make a right angle back toward the end to match the curved from piece on the front of the hood. Compare this one of my 36' WC-which matches yours to the one first one above I posted which is a straight hood-with straight line on the radiator.
Other thing that is different on mine above is the paint runs. LOL
