You're on the right track -- you can sure find a running Cub with at least a seat and decent tires in that range, and maybe pick up an implement or two with it.
Even if it is the demonstrator he says it is, you're looking for a working tractor, and there's no point paying a collector's premium for something unusual.
What I find so striking about that one is the premium he wants. A seat that needs fixing or lack of a battery isn't all that unusual to come across, but tires are a large part of the price consideration on a used tractor, and this guy, by taking off the decent tires on it, is reducing the value of it as a tractor down to the $500-$800 range, and tacking a premium of four or five times that onto it because it has a patch of white paint of some kind on it.
If I were even into the collectible aspect, the most I'd offer, in the stripped-off condition he's offering would be $1000, and I'd have to want it REAL bad to offer that!
