CTPATRIOT 12 #1 Posted January 21, 2012 I've had this seat sitting in a bag around my house for a while(yes inside!).Not sure if i'll use it?It's used,but has no rips/cracks...It's dusty but should clean up nice.The pan and bolt holes are nice also.Any idea what it's worth?

smoreau 658 #2 Posted January 21, 2012 $75-$100 would be my guess. Some one here would want it for sure, put it in the classifieds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,741 #3 Posted January 21, 2012 $30 .....who do I send the check to! Just kidding, nice seat. I just paid $40 for an aftermarket NON-WH seat and I will have to make an adapter plate to get it bolted to my tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,300 #4 Posted January 21, 2012 Seat values are funny. You need to find someone doing a correct restoration who absolutely needs a seat with the horse head on it to complete their restore. I have a nearly perfect original two piece seat that I hope to sell to someone doing that type of restoration. Mike.......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,654 #5 Posted January 21, 2012 I bought a used seat that looked perfect. It had been in storage for some time. After about 2 weeks of use it started to crack and then they spread quickly. Problem is the plastic in these old seats dries out. If you need it for a restoration on something you won't be using it would be nice. If you want one to use buy a new seat from Northern tool or someplace else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregg'shorses 77 #6 Posted January 21, 2012 Try a little Mother's or Maguire's vinyl cleaner / conditioner on it. a couple of times and it will soft it up, and give it a bit of a sheen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 1,021 #7 Posted January 21, 2012 I sold the same seat off my c-81 that was perfect for $150 on Ebay a little over a year ago! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sorekiwi 761 #9 Posted January 21, 2012 Sometime when you are bored do a search for JD Patio seats. It will open your eyes to what some collectors will pay for an item. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wheelhorse656 20 #11 Posted January 21, 2012 I have the same seat as well but mine has a very tiny crack but other than that its really nice!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butch 194 #12 Posted January 21, 2012 One just sold on Ebay for around $115. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,029 #13 Posted January 21, 2012 That style low back runs in the $100-150 range, high backs bring about $50 more, some of the older seats bring big money the early 70's 2 piece seat with arm rest go around $300 but have to be nice, the 60's seats with the logos run in the $200-300 range, I have a few of all of them I've been setting on, HAHA, they are getting hard to find in nice shape, I think the hardest to find is the 69 fiberglass pan seat, or the orig. 867 seat also a fiberglass pan seat, both look very close to each other and have a logo on them.

can whlvr 993 #14 Posted January 22, 2012 not to rain on your parade but those seats seem to have more rigid plastic that rips when it gets old due to hardning of the plastic,i would find a really good product torub into it to soften it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTPATRIOT 12 #15 Posted January 22, 2012 This seat isn't very old.I'd say the "90's,the material is fairly flexible as far as this style seat goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
