Mickwhitt 4,642 #4 Posted April 15, 2021 Great pair of tractors. Who cares hiw much they cost? They are now yours to enjoy, its been said many times here, we don't do it for the money as we spend more than we could ever get back. 9 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seuadr 488 #9 Posted April 15, 2021 doesn't look like a bad score to me? the idea of a round hood to putt around on my property once my new house is built is becoming more and more attractive - right now i've got 2 acres in a busy road - once we are done building i'll have 10 acres about 2/3rds wooded. big difference! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CCW 1,295 #10 Posted April 15, 2021 If you spent $200 and came away happy it would be worth it. We spend so much more on stuff that does not bring us smiles. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregor 4,846 #11 Posted April 15, 2021 I usually spend too much on them. Then I always put too much into them. But I would not sell them for $5000. So it's all good. 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tractorhead 9,064 #12 Posted April 15, 2021 Congrats to your new Machines! Important is not what you have payed for, if you be satisfied than it‘s worth all the Money, independently how much it was. That is in my World the meaning of Worth. They just need a little care to be reactivated, but all can be done. No clue about your skills, but if you like to work on them, you can learn a lot of things. If needed, all here will guide you ( and maybe your Dad) in the learning curve so you get more and more experienced on the beauty and the ease of this great machines. The best on all is, you can use them also for a Ride to have Fun. So enjoy your machines! - and yes, in my World the be worth! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,764 #14 Posted April 15, 2021 Looks like a short frame square hood. Are those rear rims what they look like. Absolutely worth $100. The other looks like a 1960 suburban...also a great find. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
