Value of late 1940s D4 with Trackson loader and spare parts

Start her up and move out of the weeds and it will be worth much more.

the honest answer is what a buyer will pay and the seller is willing to receive.
if I cant see it start and move under its own power really its worth a bit more than scrap value. truth be told most things in unrestored condition are worth little more than their weight as scrap metal unless its something rare and unusual.

dont base your prices off auction prices often there false either over inflated or undervalue. becuase 2 people really wanted it no matter the price or there was no interest from the crowd. i recently saw some stuff sell at auction for a pittance becuase there was no money in the crowd and i know the person who owned the gear. it was sad to watch.

Thank you! This was once a beloved part of our recreational property, but there's not alot of interest in the family to rehabilitate it anymore, and it would be wonderful to find an appreciative home for it (rather than just scrap it -- it was restored in the mid 1980s, and ran just fine when it was parked). I appreciate your time and honesty!

the main thing that will need attention to get it running is the pony engine fuel system. the only thing that needs doing on the diesel side other than checking the fluids and the controls work freely is drain some fuel from the tank to check for condensation.

Location? There may be someone on this board that would rescue that machine if you post where in the world it is.
