Have you ever had the feeling that you let something get away from you ,and you can"t get it out of your mind? I went to an auction yesterday that had about 25 tractors . Therewere several cubs,1 farmall A,and 3 super A"s. Most of them were in rough shape and they could only get a couple of the supers to start. The other Super A that would"nt start looked good ,the steering was tight,and had good tires. The motor was free. On the minus side the radiator was clogged , the starter was missing,and you could tell from the skid marks that something was frozen up, either the clutch or the brakes were stuck.Finally the one thing that caught my eye was that it was serial #250032. The 31st Super A made. It sold for 1150

Funny thing is, when I go tractor shopping.....the junk I see offered is pathetic and the prices asked are even worse. But when I go to sell.....and my stuff looks good and works as advertised....nobody wants to buy it. LOL! I think most of this stuff is overpriced and nostalgia only goes so far with me. Some equipment auctions have genuine bargains, but most of the stuff is fresh off the farm and the product of a hard life and 50 years of neglect. Baling wire, duct tape and cold welds are the norm, oil black as tar, steering loose as a goose and slick tires...and the owner will smile and ask you $2000 for it. Take a look at ebay.....I am sure everybody here prowls there like I do. You'll see everything from scrap iron, to what somebody considers the Holy Grail and priced accordingly. I see junk sell high and decent items lowballed while the buzzards circle for a free lunch. The only tractor I sometimes wish I had kept was a '56 Allis CA...and that isn't often.
