In case anyone is looking at that Suzue 150-4 on Ebay -
It doesn't look promising.
I wrote and asked if the steering wheel was missing, gave him my phone #, and said I would like to see it. I also asked if we could start and demo it, if the 3-point lifts, and what components it would need to be a complete working unit.
Here's what I got back.
I located steering repair parts, they cost $845.
This looks to me like an auction for a lawn ornament, not for a tractor needing some specific repairs before putting it in service. Without the steering connected, it isn't possible to test it very thoroughly even if you could get the engine started. A bad front axle for example, combined with the cost of that steering box would make the whole thing not cost-effective to repair.
