Whats the serial number of the oldest known IH 560 tractor?

Anonymous-0 · Mar 18, 2011

At last glance #506 Farmall version is in Ohio

So what would that make #505 worth?

Assuming both are in the same condition, it's a toss-up which one would be worth more. It would depend on the day and the crowd at the auction.

However, they probably aren't in the same condition. If #505 is a siezed up rust heap, it's worth LESS than #506.

Low serial numbers on tractors like the 560 don't make them particularly valuable. They're not big with the collectors.

Besides, low serial number 560s are pre-recall tractors, and may not have the updates installed. That could make it worth more if that's what you want, or worth less if you actually want to use the tractor.

All original, no rust, everything works, and stored for over 25 years. Any ballpark idea of the value for the estate?

Pictures would be a big help. Many tractors that have been in storage are either seized or require a lot of work anyways because they've sat so long without being started and driven. Serious collectors will start and drive their vehicles and tractors every 2 or 3 month's.
