I don't think everyone is dealing with the same idea of value. Look at what it would cost you to buy a good running one, subtract what you'll figure it'll take you to make it right and add any premium you would have for the fresh overhaul/repair, adjust for probability of your repair cost=what it's worth to you. Compare that to value of parts and leftover scrap value is your exposure if you guess wrong on the repair. Depending on your relationship with the owner tell him your logic on the price something like- I can buy one with a fresh motor for oh say $5,000 it'll cost me $3,500 to go through it so I can't pay more than $2,500 for it or Parts and scrap are worth $3,500 I'll have to haul and break it I need $1,000 to do that so it's worth $2,500. Of course you'll pad or adjust whatever figures you use to CYA. If he has an attachment to it he might sell it for less if he thinks you'll repair it instead of breaking it for parts, sometimes we get sentimental about our tractors, who says guys don't have feelings.
