''79 Ford 3550

[Brad W Wi]

Need help quick!!!!!!!! going tomorrow Tuesday P.M. to look at a Ford 3550 1979 vintage, gas, with loader. I need to get an idea on how much it's worth and any thing I might want to check out and to look for???????

I think that the 3550 was made 1972 - 1975. Ford used at least three different transmissions. Most of the industrial tractors of that vintage
that I see for sale around here look like they were plumb wore out. Asking prices seem to range from $2k to the moon. I understand that the
proof meters on Fords of that vintage were about the first thing to break. I would certainly start with looking at the model, production, and
serial number to determine what the tractor actually is.
