[Farmall] Freeman auction prices

That is the owner of those tractors not the tractor.
And every guy I knows that owns those hand crank tractor says: "Cranking
this tractor  is starting to get old."
I prefer a tractor with the option of crank start or pushing the button.
Even some of my IH trucks have that option.  :-)
