Doesn't seem a bad project
Re: Doesn't seem a bad project
Hi Brian
Welcome to the board, we was all newbies once . wouldn't worry to much about the link, there's ebay links on the forum pretty often and we aren't miserable like the yesterdays tractor forum in the states is about some stuff .
I wonder if as more of a general discussion it may be better posted on the major board . and maybe one of our moderators might consider moving the post there if they agree .
As for value I would say it's pretty realistic, some of the guys are asking crazy money for junk on ebay, the odd uninformed guy pays it , a few don't sell . I have been out of the UK tractor trade for a number of years, but think 800- 1200 quid tops a might be general farm or collective kinda price on it. if it was in Cheffins vintage sales it may bring a bit more maybe 1500 on a very good day. but then a guy would loose on hauling it and commission with an auction sale .
Regards Robert
