[Farmall] Regular sales prices

Going by that serial number, that tractor was produced towards the end of
the 26 model year. The three items I mentioned appear to be there and that
is a big plus for the Regular model, and anybody wanting to restore one.
That also tells me that no hole has been cut in the hood for the F-20 style
exhaust. Also, thank you for the picture. Appears to be a complete tractor
and worth somebodies effort. I'd throw out a value of $600 - $800. Add
$500. to that if it was running.
I've always said that a fair price for an old tractor is whatever both
parties agree on, and they both shake hands and walk away smiling!
Best wishes,
bobcurrie

Bob, good to hear from you!
Serial # is QC5665 (going form memory). I guess the carb is original,
its the 2 or 3 pc round brass carb, severely worn I'm sure. Exhaust is
original as far as I know, about the size and shape of a junior sized
football. the linkages on top of the hood are there, but one hood
bracket was buggered up. I think we had to make the rod that went from
the hood down to the mag.
