1938 JD G

[Kansas rhody]

local non profit farm is trying to sell a 1938 G that was donated to them, it runs nice, good tires and above average paint, they said it was professionaly restored so that could mean a lot of different things. They are asking 12k for it which seems too high, it is on FB marketplace with a short video, located in Jamestown, RI, trying to help them out with a ballpark figure

Yes you are correct that is too high to get it to leave. Cut that in half. List it for 7 or 8.

Possibly gamble with a raffle if they think the local market market might support it.....

What’s the serial number? What type of rims are on it? If it’s a low radiator it will make a big difference.

Sorry don’t have the serial number, rims are not spokes, it is a older restoration, and I dont believe it is a low radiator, haven’t had a chance to look at it in person yet. People think that if they spend 10k fixing something then it’s worth at least that, but of course that isn’t how the tractor world works, or cars, or just about anything unless it is super rare

2 X on a raffle as a fund raiser. Sell 2400 tickets at $5 each to raise the $12,000 and hold the raffle when all the tickets are sold. Most people don't mind chipping in $5 or $10 to help a charity that they support.
