Sky,
I bought a 1959 Farmall 140 last September for $4500 with the
following gear and felt it was a good deal by North Carolina
standards (tractors seem to sell for less west of the Appalachian
Mountains).
• Farmall 140 with fast hitch. Runs fine with one new rear tire
but paint is pretty rusty in places like the Super A on your ebay
link
• Woods 59 Rear mounted mower
• 2-14 bottom plow
• 5' Twin gang disk harrow
• Thingamajingy that has small plows connected to
individual pigs-tail looking spring steel pieces all clamped onto
a 2" square bar and fitting into the single point hitch. Takes
more passes than a turning plow but does a good job tearing up
ground. Have no idea what the proper name for this implement
is as no one had one in my neighborhood growing up.
• Single point hitch blade good for plowing snow or moving dirt
• Full set of front and rear cultivators with plows, hilling
coulters, etc.

I figured the tractor was worth $2500 and the implements were
worth $2000. I was the first guy to see it and I bought it on the
spot. The later told me he got 20 calls later that day from folks
wanting to buy. At the end of the day, the question always is,
"what is it worth to me". A wise man told me to answer that
question before getting into a bidding process.
