Ran when parked? Assume NOTHING!! And place in the category of DOES NOT run, and WHO KNOWS whats wrong with it!
The one that's locked up. Only worth what it is for parts. If sold at auction, it likely not bring much more than scrap price. Iron guy might likely end up with it.
The other 3, if engines are atleast free, they'd probably be worth $350 to $700 a piece depending on condition (rims ok?, etc.), completeness (all there?, original?), and any extras (fenders, wheel weights, add on 3 point/live hydraulics).
Seen an H sale at auction in Jan. Non runner, engine free, paint ok, rear tires had great tread/horribly weather cracked from sitting flat, fairly complete, no extras, had a mounted mower that sold attached. Was attached homemade style, mower was not right for the tractor. Needed to be taken off and sold to the iron man. Tractor and attached mower sold for $800. I thought that was a tad high. Not much money to be made there for a tinkerer to get it running and then re-sale. Buyer must not of had that in mind. Must of had buying and tinker, and use for themself in mind.
Someone else posted on here not long ago, a couple of running M's recently sold for $1100 each.
So, I'd say for the whole lot of 4, $1400 on the low end. That of course is rock bottom, save from iron guy, plenty of room to make some money, price. $2500 for the top end. There might be some room with that figure. But not if you get them running to only find out they got burnt valves, cracked heads, clutch that slips, leaky radiators, fried electrical systems, the list goes on. One that has multiples that DON'T run, likely parked one when something went wrong with it, and bought another one. If they retired, or quit doing what they were doing, they likely parked the last one they acquired, and now it don't run. Sound like this guy's story???

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
