I have a working co-op(1940's) plus a salvage co-op that's all there except rear tires. Do I have anything of interest and value or just junk that has no demand at all? Appreciate any input you may have. Thanks!

Yes, you do have something of interest and collector value. I can't give you an exact dollar value. I hesitate to even make an estimate. Please, if you want to get rid of them, do not haul them off or cut them up for scrap iron, they are worth more than you would get as scrap iron.

Loren, I appreciate your reply. I understand not being able to make an estimate with no more info than you had. I realize that would center around condition of tractor and level of restoration skills one might possess. It gives me fodder to consider though. Thanks again.

I guess I could give you a ball-park figure, keep in mind that it's a big ball-park. The CO-OP that is running and working should bring about $500 at the extreme low end, and could possibly bring as much as $2,500 at the high end, and it might just go wild and bring $3,000 to $3,500. The parts tractor should be worth in the neighborhood of $250 to $500. You might want to do a little research on the Co-op tractors. They have a very interesting history.

Thanks again Loren. Interesting. I guess I have to decide what to do and where to do it. Any suggestions as to the "where?" I imagine it would be very interesting knowing about the histoy, and I'll take your advice to research it.

Loren's prices are close to what I would guess. And yes, your running tractor is worth a lot more than scrap value. Do a Google search for "Co-op tractor" and see what pops up. Here is a link to another forum with some more info on Co-ops: http://www.mytractorforum.com/showthread.php?t=15915&highlight=Co-op+tractor
