need help

[MIKE W (NY)]

iam going to look at a 560 this week end w/ a sickle bar mower and snap coupler plow... its a neighbors who passed 5-6 years ago and its sat in an old barn since.. the old guy used it alot im sure it will need some tlc.. the son told me make an offer what do myou guys think would be a fair price???

If the engine is free (not stuck), the tires are 50% or more on the rear, and the sheetmetal is OK, I would put it at 2500 tops. If it ran W/O issues it would be substantially more. JimN

i know it ran when they parked it so im assuming its not stuck its been inside since so hope not....

 

[Janicholson]

Just temp change humidity related moisture/condensation will rust them tight. Getting it running then deciding on a price might be reasonable, but the price would be higher. If you like it, and would do the work, make a deal as though it was running, with provision for full payment, or reduced price if actually in need of substantial repair/$. In writing clear and signed. JimN

About a $1000 around this part of the country, unless you know more about it. Snap Coupler plow won't work with a 560.
