Mglenn 1 #1 Posted 2 hours ago I picked up this 1985 c105 at a local garage sale. it runs really well and was kept in decent shape. What is the value on a tractor like this? I don’t really have good use for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 25,259 #2 Posted 1 hour ago $450-$600 I would think. That gray motor is a replacement, so that’s actually a plus in my book. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 9,875 #8 Posted 57 minutes ago @Newbie only a suggestion , would add rislone zinc oil additive to your oil change , ? reason , is its varnish cutting ability, add 4 oz to my 2 plus quarts of 10-30 valvoline oil , bottle specs , as soon as it heats up its cleaning ring glands and valve stem sealant areas , helping ensure solid engine function . this and a carb bowl clean , will help you off to a good start . would also get a penetrating oil spray down going / soaking on that paint ? let it sit a few days in the hot sun ? retaining original PATINA , wipe it down , with a clean oiled cloth , NO SCRATCH PADS OR PAINT REMOVAL , buffed mine out with a 6" electric palm buffer , cleaner wax , amazing paint depth , also do a trans oil . front elevated , drainage , new shift boot , this is basic recovery stuff , grease every fitting , would also get after the deck , service , hot sun oil soak , cleaning , done a lot of this , thanks for a reply , pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
