The Tractors are Starting to Find Me!

Recommended Posts

KC9KAS

Just got an odd phone call.

Guy says "You don't know me, but...."

He is the uncle of my neighbors wife.....I know my neighbor, but that is about all!

Guy says he has an Auto 12 for sale and he heard I like to work on & collect WH tractors.

Bla bla, bla....Guy wants $300 for a tractor that doesn't run.

I said "Thanks for giving me the opportunity, but that is more than I will pay for a non-running GT."

That's a good thing KC9KAS. They find you and you have the option of adopting them or not. Maybe I'm getting close. We're heading to Indiana late this week. Today I got a call from my daughter asking me if I would work on their neighbors Wheel Horse for him. He saw the Commando I did for my grandson. I told her sure and to get the year and model of his tractor. I've seen it but the homes are pretty far apart and it was about 100 yards away. It looks like a mid 70's C series.

I would have at least taken a look at it, it might be in real nice shape...

Agree with Ken on this. Doesn't hurt to take a gander at the tractor. Roughly determine what it needs, then tell the owner what you are willing to pay, given the condition.

I wouldn't pay much for a non running auto either,its possible it needs a motor and a pump,or it might only need a spark plug
