The question should really be.....

 

Is it worth it to you? 

 

You haven't given us enough to go on, and without pictures it's hard to put a price on anything.

:twocents-02cents:  If all the parts you need are there and it is close by where you don't have to spend all day getting it then it is well worth it. Prices on :techie-ebay: are going out of sight and :omg: shipping will kill most deals.

:text-yeahthat: Then, sell what you don't need (or want). He is only "asking", might bicker a bit for a lower price.

If your that close and obviously need parts just ask the guy if you can buy what you want off the tractor, if not start doing the dance with a 100.00 bill, if that fails and he looks at you like your from Mars ( and he probably will ) bite the bullet and haul it home.

Your question seems to me is how long have you been looking for parts, time is money. It wouldn't be worth anything to me BUT I don't need/want it. Good luck.

Those three things will cost you almost or maybe even $200 on-line.

I'd buy it, take what you need and part the rest.  I bet you could get most of your money back on the trans, wheels, hood, engine.
