The guy said he would rather sell a tractor that has been painted and decaled, because for no more money than it costs him....I think he said the Acrylic Enamel was $125 a gallon.....he'd sell them painted. He does this becuase when he tears it down to repair any needed parts he might as well paint it so it'll be cleaner and more reliable. More reliable because when you tear it down for paint, you discover alot of "Cobbled Farm Fixes" that need attention....something you might not notice at first glance.
I am just wondering if it would be worth the money to buy one at this price rather than another tractor in "original" condition. Aren't the 140's in NC area bringing this much in "original" condition?
