DT Fan Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Plus 10% buyers premium! Just wish I'd have gotten more of these things corralled before prices went nuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, a cab with no air. Probably more of them came without than with back in the day, especially aftermarket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acem Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Not down here. Even my 1066 with custom/diamond cab had ac added. A riding in a cab down south without AC is kinda like the hot box they used to have in our prisons.

We fought the cold as much as the summer heat. Froze your ass off in the spring and late fall but could open the windows in the summer to get a breeze flowing through.

FarmerFixEmUp Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 AC in cars and pickups was just getting popular in the late 60's early 70's. Unless you had a Buick or Cadillac. The first car my parents had with AC was a 1972 Impala. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobbyfarm Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 We were just talking about this phenomenon this phenomenon this evening. Pretty much everything is selling for more then people paid for it. A new skid loader that was $26000 a few years ago is about double. I don't know where it ends. I'm guessing it will be a long time before these 1960s and 70s tractors drop off in value. Around here the farms that made money for the year usually run out and spend some the last 2 weeks of the year. I don't know what they are going to buy this year. There isn't much there to buy on some dealers lots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobbyfarm Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I guess I should add with interest rates on the rise maybe they won't be running out and buying but instead paying down lines of credit etc. Sorry if I am far off. Strange times for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we met she didn't run her AC at home. Had it but didn't use it. Now have no doubt, she likes to run the heater! Thx-Ace 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick G. Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Those tires look wider than 18.4-38s to me? Thoughts? Am I seeing things? Lol… Anyways, way over priced. Crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
td9inidaho Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Only a/c I know of in my '16 Ford platinum is rolling the windows down, not one of my pieces of equipment, equipped or not, has operable a/c, "I have to acclimate" to the conditions outside. So I tell anyone that rides with me anyhow 😂 Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

856 Custom Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Yeah, just don't know what things will bring. Here in my area of Northwest Ohio (Nice) used equipment is bringing unbelievable prices on farm retirements. Example 5 year old 500 bushel wagons selling for 16k, what you could have bought a new one for 20 months ago?? 2 people wanted that tractor pretty bad to get it to that price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1026ON Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 It amazes me that nobody bats an eye when a clapped out high hour tractor with an automotive paint job full of chinese aftermarket parts brings this kind of money at a Mecum or Aumann Auction but when an original paint, lower hour tractors sells high it's criminal. Pretty sure the fact that this tractor does not have A/C played a 0% factor in the minds of the bidders willing to bid past the $7500 mark for it. We live in times of 100K pickups and $20-$30,000/Acre farmland in lots of places. The $35,000 payed for a 1466 to sit in the corner of a guys shed is probably not going to be missed. Personally I would rather have that 1466 in the shed than a boat or RV or 50HP compact tractor. A 70's era high horsepower fender tractor with original paint. The farm boys vintage muscle car of 2022. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
