You Know Fellas,I like to see these old girls hold some value. We who love this old I.H.Equip. do it as a labor of love ,However, its nice to see that their is some value to our efforts.As for the smta on e-bay ,its pay me now or pay me later.If you don't want to spend time and money restoring then your' going to have to pay more for one that is preserved enough to have something to be proud of. Also I recall in 2005-06 Smta's were bringing 7500.00 to 10,000.00. I saw a junk smta sell at auction in 2006 for 7500.00.I have a freind in nevada that has a very sound older resto smta for sale and He cannot get 6000.00 been trying to sell for last two years. He told me he had offers of 10,000.00 pre 08.Kicks himself for not selling. I have been restoring a set of tractors that my Dad Had when I was in grammer & high school. 1945 H, L.a.case propane,Smta propane,f-400,and now starting a 560 gas.Even with A couple free tractors I have close to 18000.00 average in them. even though I think they are perfect and I am very proud of them,I would be hard pressed to get 6000.00 average.If it were not for the connection to my roots in farming and to my Dad that I lost when I was 19, I probably would not place as much value to them. Amazing what we value! Just my 2 cents, Tony

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Fair Weather Tractor - by Dave M.. No, Fair Weather isn't some rare brand. It's the kind you can't leave out in the rain. Here's how it happened. I had been casually looking for a tractor for weeks. I saw a few 9N's, but they had even fewer amenities than the 8N my Grandpa bought new in '52 with a Dearborn loader. 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
