[Farmall] Farmall f-30 price?

[Randy Lacey]

Yes you are correct, I have a 1928 regular on full steel now. My buddy
has a trailer that is wide enough to haul the regular so the F30 should
not be a problem. We also haul my 1929 10-20 on the trailer, the trailer
floor is wood. We lay down some planks to run the wheels up on.

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.
