This is always an interesting topic of discussion. There is a value to something as it sits, assembled. often, it is scrap value unless the tractor is something relatively rare (an F12 is not). however, there is a value to the parts it contains, which is usually higher for the parts value. What is not often considered is the labor to take it from a an assembled tractor to the sellable parts.
So, depending upon what your plan is, and what you need, the price then follows. so, the real answer here is what do you want to do with it. Personally , in this case, I might offer $300-$400 for it FOR PARTS. That offer could be effected by how far I have to drive (both ways) to get it.
with all that said, in this case, I agree. $1500 is a joke. $500 for the one in Pa is getting a bit closer to reality. The one in Pa BTW is an F14. mag, carb rims, governer, and a couple other items may make the $500 closer to ok.
