Hey, I was just curious as to what my C will be worth when Im all done with it.

It will be totally funtional, all new tires. New seat harware, no dents, sandblasted, primed and professinally painted. Will have distillate tank hooked up, but will run on gas only.
Ill be rerplacing the sterring wheel, PTO seals, Engine gaskets, valve job, all new brakes..you know, the whole thing~

About what will it be worth in say 2 years when Im done?

heres what i do i usally spent to much on a tractor because i want it then i spend to
much to restore it so i have to keep it a lot
longer so i get to enjoy it more works for me
like most everyone on this board we do it just to be around tractors not for the money they
possible can bring later

It's really hard to put dollar amount on a tractor like this, you could come with an asking price and go from there. I had a '49 C that I completely rebuilt from front to back like you described yours and when I moved I had an auction. Some of the tractors went for more than I was expecting and some went for less. My C went for a little more than I expected. It was rebuilt with all new tires, wide front plus a narrow that went with it, and a three point hitch and it brought $2500. You never know what one will acually bring until you sell it.

I know a lot of old tricks and get tractors given to me that I sell for my parts and labor bill. There is no money to be made fixing up tractors.

My guess it'll be worth less than what you"ll have in it... This "hobby" usually ends up to be a labor of love, not for profit.
