Brrly1 1,146 #26 Posted October 10, 2015 Ok, what's the problem here?? I've seen many of those weights sell for over five hundred dollars. Yes it was on flea-bay. I do plan on doing some more weights. I'm sure there are some of you New to this hobby as I've been doing now for about 12 years maybe 13, and so as the story goes I've watched e-bay a lot, so yes I've seen expensive an then Not so expensive. It doesn't really matter if it is something you want or need to finish your project you'll either buy or you won't. The original weights are expensive Handle or No handle!! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #27 Posted October 10, 2015 I'll throw up a couple different pictures. I have a set of patterns at aluminum factory plus a set at the cast factory. Handle or No handle. Aluminum is more less for show no weight factor 22lbs where the cast weigh in at 54lbs. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedRanger 1,468 #30 Posted October 27, 2015 Old thread I know but...any1 see the tombstone weight on EBay right now???22bids, 2 days left, currently at $390!!! "I was tearing down our old garage and found this old Wheel Horse Tractor Weight. I was able to get a model number by searching on eBay. This weight is scratched and scuffed with rust. I am going to remove the bolt for easier shipping."Weight is probably worth more than the garage he was tearing down. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SylvanLakeWH 26,148 #35 Posted October 31, 2015 Value is an interesting thing. I'm watching full running tractors week after week with prices less than this weight on craigslist that don't sell...We are an odd species, but we create our own inflation when value is related to need, desire or both. Price goes up as your need and desire go up... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aldon 4,827 #37 Posted February 8, 2017 So I was perusing a 1976 price list I received with my recent B100 and noticed that in 1976, the "GT14 Frame Weight" is listed as a 34 dollar option. i would like to be added to the list of those who want a couple reproductions if anyone on forum decides to do a production run. i would also like to see a picture of anyone has one of them mounted to a GT14.
