Is a deck worth it?

Recommended Posts

So I have a Franken 606 (replacement pull start 7 hp tecumseh, commando 8 hood and dash)  It has tire chains and a plow.  At some point in going to sell it as I would really like to tinker with an Elec-Trak.  The question I have is how much value would a mower deck add to the bundle?

 

Thanks!

I'm thinking perhaps you already know, but my 1 and 1/2 cents is that WH built some Franken horses. Others here will know far more than I about yours.

I personally don't count decks for value justification when buying a new tractor.

 

Too often they need major attention.

 

So unless the deck is pristine, I would not think it adds much to your package.....if I were buying.

 

The replacement engine impedes a collector buying it but may help if the new buyer wants to work it. But generally reduces the value in a lot of cases.

Thanks for the replies.   I know the replacement motor is a problem,  but such is life.   The reasonI ask about the deck is I can get one for $20.00, just have to take a 6 hour round trip drive.
