Tom, I have no idea of current value as it has been years since I have seen a Farmall B450. The tractor was rare in the USA. I believe they were fairly common in Canada, but I believe the Memphis District of the International Harvester Company was the only US district that imported them. therefore unique parts may be fairly hard to come by in the US. (Some may have also been sold out west but I am not sure). However, when we sold them new, in the Mississippi Delta, they were a very rugged and reliable tractor. Many of the parts are interchagable with the Super M, 400, 450, and 560 (drive train & some sheet metal) if you match carefully, and many parts are just for the B450 (engine, hitch, hydraulics). If you do decide to go with it, you will have the equivilent of a modern Super MD with live hydraulics, factory three point hitch, and modern direct start diesel engine. They were a very good tractor. Harold H
