[Farmall] Farmall f-30 price?

[Karl Olmstead]

Just make sure you have a way to transport them, Randy.  Unless you've 
stumbled across the NT model (narrow tread), the rear wheels are about eight 
feet apart.  Wide, long and heavy.  Won't fit on most car hauler type 
trailers.  Since they're so difficult to transport, F-30s are not very 
popular.  The kind of wheels they have (steel, cutoff, round spoke...) makes 
a difference.  A running F-30 might bring $700 to $1700, but it might take a 
long time for a buyer to show up.  Guys are afraid of hand cranking that big 
engine, too.

Tractor prices are inverted from what they were when the machines were 
produced.  The smaller the tractor, the more money it'll now bring.
