[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1538889, member: 1715"] I picked up several project tractors over the years. Mostly models from the 60s and 70s. None are green. Not a lot of demand for this kind unless they have a FEL. Probably less demand going forward as the smaller farmers fold. I got them in good running condition but did not restore them. I have one now that needs a new head gasket but the rest are OK. They are shedded and see light use - - perhaps 10 to 50 hours per year for most. They should last for decades at this pace. Do you see a build up of this kind of iron in some local sheds, or do most move them to a bone yard to avoid buying tires, and to make room for shiny zero interest models? [/QUOTE]
