Would you buy this tractor at any price???

Folks on Ebay will try to sell anything I guess, but this is definitely the most damaged tractor I've seen for sale in a while (was in a fire). I thought even the opening bid of $25 was extremely optomistic, but some one has bid on it. Check out Ebay item # 4387133874

That is a piece of junk to me. Why would anybody want to buy that thing? And its been in a fire to, how do we know it aint haunted too? This person might be having nightmares and seing ghosts come out of it and wants to get rid of it lol.

Maybe it has some ties to celebrity...........

Perhaps Richard Pryors free-basing tractor?!

There's probably a couple of .357 magnum holes in it too....

Someone will probably repaint it and call it "art".

Hi...

One wheel on it is likely worth $25... ??

Any guesses on the manufacturer of this gem?

I see some yellow paint, so maybe its a Cub Cadet?

I think I would even pass on this one...

Marty, older Cub looks right. Wonder what he was doing with the mega-wide wheels all the way around.

Not a Cub, according to the seller, it was a Massey Ferguson. The hood dates it to the late 1970's? early 1980's? And somebody bid on it and got it for the opening bid of $25.

Its a burned up piece of junk. If you asked me, the guy should take it to the dump to have it crushed by the hydraulic crusher!
