Probably not much, prices for the older farm Cats have really fell off here of late. There are some around priced higher, but this fellow is being more realistic.

Just my opinion, it's worth what you paid for it.

Hey Jan,
Check out the grader pics. Two of the 4 machines have the front tires turning forward. Must have been in the midwest once.

55 years ago I was told that chevron tread tires on pavement wore better when mounted in the 'reverse' direction.

Drivers would be mounted 'normally' for the mud cleansing (pushing the mud our when slipping) action but the non driven tires could be mounted 'backwards' for slower tire wear. Some would mount their 'haying' tractor tires (used in dry fields and roaded a lot) would mount their rear tires backwards for better wear.

That is right Roger. That would be the ONLY conclusion one could make that one time or another, they spent some time up near you, ha!
