The pedal tractor guy was at our Steam Pageant a few years back. Crazy!

So I’m wondering how many of this hoard were actually ridden by children!?

As a kid, our family had a pedal tractor that we rode so heavily that we literally wore out the chain and a set of rear tires. Thankfully, my Dad was handy and did the needful to get it back on the road!

My pedal tractor was a hand me down. I broke the steering wheel off of it. My Grandfather made me a new one out of wood.

Apparently, there is a lucrative market for toy tractors. Like anything else, there are specific models and features (like open grille and closed grille) that affect the value.

 

We talked to a friend today who said that his buddy sold 2 (restored pristine) today in Portland. One for $1,000 and another for $1,250. Said he only sold them so that he could buy a different lot of 3 rare tractors to restore.

Unbelievable!

Made a couple nice scores in the swap meet area.

Super straight hood for $5. A solid U-size battery tray for $15, and this original headlight lens for $50

Man those are some deals one could become jealous off. No chance of finding parts that nice around here, let alone for that price.

It's nice to get lucky sometimes. Living in "farm country" helps when it comes to finding old tractor parts.
