|
|
Case Guys, I need some advice. Found a 730 CK close to home but do not know what to offer the fellow for it. I want to be fair. The engine is locked up (rusted) tires and rims completely shot, engine and tractor partially dis-assembled, had been close to a hot fire, singed the sheet metal and cracked the exhaust manifold.It is a gas engine. What"s a fair offer. I need a project this winter. Brian |

sounds like maybe 500.00 less if he will take it scrap might bring a bit more but tell himm you will make it run, a salvage yard would not give any more if thathere |

One of the greatest tractors to leave Racine was the 730CK. However, the condition you describe, she's only worth what the scrapper will give. |

oldtanker, if you are referring to the 730, it is in Iowa, the cabin is on Leech Lake N. of Walker. Brian |
