If you do it yourself, parts/ labor add up. If you bought it new, and kept it stored, you got a gem. If it was Dad's or granddad's, how do you price it? I have a "working girl" "H" that has paid for itself a couple times IF you believe they don't make 'em like that any more- I do. I have a restored "H" from a dear friend who passed. I get all fired up over both tractors because they fill in what I need. The fancy "H" has local history and sentimental value to me. The next guy, no.

That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
