I asked a couple weeks or so back about a ballpark price on a Ford 5000 that had been setting for something like 14 or 16 years. I think he said it sat in the barn for 14, and then his son in law moved it out of the barn where it sat for 2 years outside. Was told I could check it all out and see if I could get it running if I wanted before I made an offer. I cracked all the drain plugs, got nothing but oil, no water or antifreeze. Had half a tank of stinky fuel, drained off a bit, and it wasn't full of crud, just stinky. Put my heavy jumper cables from my pickup to it, and it didn't roll hardly a full turn and was running like a top. Everything works good and as it should. Needs a seat, a battery, a couple tie rods ends, and a water pump (loose). And tires. All 4 tires are loaded on it. Gonna service it and run it around a bit and maybe do some mowing with it this week before I buy tires. Gonna clean up the rims and paint them when I put the tires on, get rid of the rust stains. Has the dealer sticker on it still from when it was sold new, I bought it from the original owner. I think a little wax and it will shine right up. Can't remember exactly the number, but it has around 2400 hours on the tach, which works. I believe it too, paint is hardly worn on the foot pans or pedals. Gonna flip the wheels in narrow as well. I guess they used it for cultivating certified seed crops they used to grow.
