Whats this planter worth?

[HCJtractor]

I restored this old Allis Chalmers three row planter and have decided to sell it. What's your opinion of its value in your neck of the woods? It's in great shape, with all new parts that were worn, sandblasted and painted. I converted it to a three point hitch style. I just wanted to hear what others would realistically pay for it. Just curious.

is it No-till?

What is the row spacing and is that adjustable/ And what seed plates come with it and what are they for ? Corn . soy beans , sugar beets etc.

 

[HCJtractor]

Yes it's no Til. Spacing is set at 30" but is adjustable. Has corn and bean plates and maybe peanut.

 

[vtsnowedin]

What do you think you could adjust it for for beans? Hopper touching hopper.

A few years ago I bought a refurbished 2-row JD 71 Flexiplanter for $1000. So my guess is $500 per row.



Good luck.

I would pay $1500 for that. Nice piece of equipment. Makes me wish I had $1500 now that I think about it.

Nice job on the planter. $1500 sounds right. Those 2-row planters like Flusher's are selling that high on ebay but there's one on the Greenville, SC Craigslist right now for $500.
