The original subject was "IH 1456 value".
It depends on several things. First and foremost this is your dad's tractor. Only you know the sentimental value. I'm guessing its worth more to you than anyone else. Here in the midwest that tractor wouldn't be worth more than $4000 to $5000. The fact that it doesn't have a three point is a strike against it. Guys around here would rather have flat top fenders than an old rattle box cab. The wide rear tires are a minus too. Most guys want 18.4x38" tires so they can row crop with them. It sounds like what you have is a wheatland style tractor. If these are common in your area I would think $5000 would be a place to start if the tractor is in good repair. Hopefully your dad is gonna give you a deal too!!
