price help Ford 1100 13 HP

[TC29Ddave]

I am looking at a 1979 ford 13 HP with 679 hours. It runs well and the steering is tight. Has original tires and a three point hitch. Hydraulics seem strong . No obvious leaks. original owner. Comes with a matching ford mower. a center buster, disc harrow and a cultivater. Only the mower has seen regular use. wheel weights, front weights and the tires are water filled. Starts right up. What is a reasonable price for the package?

Thanks in advance.

In 1984 I paid $4500 for my used Ford 1100. It had 104 hours on it. I used this tractor for over 20 years. What a little tank. I still wish I had it in the woods . A lot of capability in a tractor the size of a riding lawn mower. Jay

Thank you for the prompt response. He has all the manuals , he says. He wants $3500 for the package. What does everybody think. I hae the TC29D which serves me well. This little guy would do around the edges and replace a Craftsman 18 hp which froze up. I am tired of gas ethanol and having to get them tuned up every year. What about parts for the tractor? Any suggestions? Also would it be possible to fit a roto tiller to the little guy?

Regards.

I was getting ready to say 3500$ before I saw this message.. so.. there.. I agree.. 3500$ for that package sounds good.

I've seen 1100, 1220 and 1210 sold in that same 'package' for that same price range.

I had a Woods T42 tiller for my 1100. I abused that tiller and finally killed it after 20 years of abuse. As to parts I was able to get new wheel rings, starter, and a water pump around 5 years ago. Jay
