here we go again.....

[Tony in Mass.]

Another T-AEIOU-20 project. So I'll do like so many others on these forums...
"I saw a tractor today. How much is it worth?"
The missing bits and pieces... most of them.. are inside a building... we hope they are still there. I am waiting for 2 tractors to tell me to not walk away but....

 

[Z-man]

I guess yours looking for answers from people to see how much this tractor is worth? if it where me and it was a make offer deal I would not go over the 500 to 600 hundred price range, but that is just me, also how good are the tires cause that may be a determining factor as well

 

[Tony in Mass.]

Yeah Z, kind of an on going joke here. What is 300 in Iowa is 3000 in Australia. Sometimes tractors are like a house, location location location. Oh this thing is a project, not for everyone. Trouble is, I've resurrected worst... the only monster I've created from corpses like this is a rather famous diesel version of this Standard Motors petrol engine.
I'm thinking 500 is on the high end...

Tony you better grab that one looks like a new coil!!!! lol

 

[Charles in Aus.]

Had to pay $2200 for one about the same in Australia . Parts are cheap enough though .How many TEA's in the US ?

That's about the only thing that looks new on it.
It's all pretty subjective. I dunno Tony, does it's speak to you? I think it's saying "Pleeeeeeeeaaaaaase take me home"..........or maybe it's "pleeeeeeeaaaaase just leave me alone to die". It's one of the two.

Tony you need it for your collection......don't think you have enough Brits yet! Make sure you have the Zenith carb and Lucas dizzy and look for the dynamo, A 6volt Lucas is going to be hard to find in Mass. Look also for the air breather....they are different to Detroit built nostrils.
But then I have all the bits you need .......Price? offer him a few Moulsons first!!!

Look for the casting numbers next to the transmission dipstick Tony . Might give you an indication of the year . 6 volt starter needs lots of care , dear as poison to replace .

 

[miner09]

What about tires??? $$$$

 

[wforpm]

I think Sam is right , you might need a few Moulsons before buy-n this one. If no water in oil , engine is loose , it rolls . I'm thinking 2 fitty .......... probably will cost you that in rust-o-liummmm . LOL

If I ever get all the bugs outa my 87mm then it will be my favorite, probably because it's the only one with a working govenor. You'll be surprised with the power of the standards, once you get this un running you'll probably wanta re-visit the 23c.$150 is all I'd give.
