[AT] Parting out tractors - what are your thoughts?

[charlie hill]

Kyle,  I wouldn't do it but I believe in private property rights and in
utilizing any property to it's highest and best use.  If he owns a tractor,
doesn't want it and can get more for it by parting it out I can't condemn
him for it.   Look at it this way.  The folks that get the parts will be
getting good used parts.

> I thought this might make a good discussion.  I totally understand parting
out busted up and broken-down hulks.  I've gotten parts this way myself.
But what about parting out restorable tractors, or worse yet - running and
drivable tractors?  This link is what got me thinking about the subject:

It appears this seller is parting out what used to be a very nice-looking,
parade-ready tractor.  Not a perfect tractor, but definitely not a hulk.  I
don't want to villafy the man - he has every right to do what he wants to
his tractor - and I hate to single him out, but it's just an example.
