I just bought a 1952 Super A for $1500. It sounds to be in basically the same condition. It has only the mounted cultivators with it. It has a very old 3 point conversion, and the drawbar has disappeared somewhere along the way. Runs good, a little blowby from the breather under load but not loosing power, all hydraulics work good. It has a few electrical issues, but nothing very expensive to repair. For my area (South Central Virginia) it was a good deal. Around here, offset Farmalls usually go for between $2000 and $4000 for a working tractor and $4000 and up for restorations. They are really popular with the tobacco farmers around here. From what little exposure I've had, seems to me value depends a lot on where you are located. Hope this was of some help. Kevin
