In Reply to: Restoring a Tractor posted by Devious on June 01, 2010 at 22:39:21:
the nice thing about old tractors is that at shows a tractor that is in its 'workin clothes' is just as much welcome as one that has a 100 point restoration. that being said a 'restored tractor' is one that has been dissassembled, every wear part replaced, and reassembled, and is in every way as good as or even better than it was when new. -you'll have 10 or 12 grand in that 8n, which will bring 2500 on a good day, -we dont do this for the profit in it lol, now there is also what we call 'refurbished' which is far more common, you take that same 8n, fix everything currently wrong with it, including engine overhaul, if needed, then give it a nice paint job, anything from rattle can in your driveway, to a profesional paint job, you now have a really nice looking tractor which is in great shape, your proud of it and it can be either a trailer queen and taken to shows, or taken to the field and worked as intended, and for most of us we far prefer to see that old iron working, just as it did all those years ago, but your just as welcome at most showes if you power wash your dailey workin tractor, load 'er on the trailer and bring 'er to the show
