i have a pretty nice '69 B-112. it was a backyard rescue me and a guy from work did 2 years ago. Everything was gone through. including a complete gasket set for motor, carb rebuilt, etc, etc. it wasnt restored(painted) but like i said there wasnt one thing that was checked and fixed if needed. long story short the machine ran like a top for about 4 months. since then i have only messed with the carb to try to get it running good again.

bottom line is.........i have a bunch of other tractors around here and the old b-112 needs to find a home. i want to get as much as i can for it obviously. ill sell it complete or parts......doesnt bother me. what is the best way to sell this tractor? not looking to get rich but if i can make double in parts for what i could sell it outright for then whay not? opinions?

My opinion is sell it complete. That way someone gets a good start on a restoration project and won't get frustrated looking for parts all over ebay and c'sl. Put a fair price on it and put in the classifieds to see if you get any offers.Could always be parted later if nobody interested in complete tractor.

Money can't buy you happiness.
It can however buy you a beer.
And that is close enough.
