Frick value?

[RedMF40]

As seen on FB marketplace. Taking offers. Any of you collectors have a ballpark price? Over $5k? Over $10k? Too nice for me. Besides, my local Frick dealer closed up years ago.

My guess is more than 15K. Jim

You see a lot of their steamers in PA

It’s in Pennsylvania, should be in a collectors auction.

It’s in Pennsylvania, should be in a collectors auction.

Should really be on Aumann's Pre 1930 sale that's coming up. That's a lot of loot sitting there, too, if they went that route.

Auction in 2017 brought $57k: https://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/ritem.cgi?itemid=54024 (could be the same tractor for all I know)

Aumann sold another in NY in 2013 but it was missing the radiator. Don't have the price on that one.

There can't be too many. I would think they're looking for $60k ish. But I agree, they should've put it in Aumann's pre-30 auction if they were serious about selling. Maybe they didn't want to eat the fees. But nobody is serious about selling until they put a price in their listing. More often than not, they want to field calls and messages and have conversations from guys who think their stuff is cool. I've found most of the collector world (at least when it comes to these old tractors and gas engines) are guys who want to say "neener neener look what I have" to other collectors. More power to them if that's their thing.

Jeez, maybe I should put my relic up for sale. It's only one of approximately 500 made and only 100 still known to exist.
