Market for old 3 point Equipment?

[saltbranch]

Is there a market for Old equipment? I picked up a Ferguson 3 point cultivator. One of the sweeps, the wings are broke. Other than rust, its in good shape. Worth anything?

Yes , a Pittsburgh 2 row cultivator is about 300 everyday. Just the frame is 100 bucks. I'm going to an auction Saturday and the 5' 6' stuff will bring to dollar.

This one is every bit of 6' wide. Has the sweeps with bolts you can adjust the angle on. Its an old one, pre Massey-Ferguson.

heck yea I am also going to this auction where I buy a lot of 5'-6' road blades sickle mowers etc fix them up and sell them or just resell them cause stuff goes dirt cheap. I also tent to buy a few 3 pt spreaders and sell them. Large market here for 3 pt stuff I just contacted this guy to buy this of course not full price but if I painted it and sold it I could easily make a profit

What would you guys ask for the stuff you posted? What would you do before sold? Blast and paint?

This time of the year
250 as it sets painted you can get 3 to 400. Just a replacement pork chop is about
75 bucks

each area market is different so what someone would pay here may be too expensive for there and vice versa. I like painting equipment up and cleaning it and I do not blast anything I don't plan on keeping too much work and expense imo I will use a angle grinder and wire wheel on stuff that is rusty to knock off flaking paint or flaking rust. However this year I will sandblast my great grandfathers horse drawn equipment and paint it I posted some equipment I cleaned up and painted on here let me find the link I will post it and you can see you don't have to sandblast.
