Hello: I thought I'd post 4 Farmall Auction prices from today at an Estate Auction in Edgerton Mn which is in far SW-MN.. I'll add that it was below zero F early this morning. There was 1-SM Gas, wide front with Wesendorf loader and real good rubber. Paint was nice but a little older.. $6,800.. 2ed was a S-H late model with disk brakes and live hyd. ( I can't tell if live hyd pump was factory or not). Wide front very well worn rear tires and old-old paint. A working tractor. $2,700. 3ed was an older straight M gas. Had live aftermarket hyd pump and used belly pump as resevor.. Very neat job on hyd lines and other small details. Very good paint and decals etc very good rubber. $5,700. 4th was a 450 gas.. Auction people made it clear that this 450 was completly taked apart and rebuilt.. etc etc. Great paint and minor details. Only standard drawbar..$7,700. All tractors seemed to be well taken care of. Owner was retired and had a large garage/workshop full of Many-Maintence tools common to fixeing & restoring old equipment & tractors plus a pile of discarred worn-out parts. Many people there were friends and spoke well of decesed owner.. I think the $7/bu corn prices helped too.
Question:. I wondered if other $7/bu Corn-Belt areas have had higher prices for older Farmalls??
My Prices are approx and may be in error by $50 or $100.. as I didn't write anything down with temps around zero degrees... Ag Ret..
