140 value

[Dusty B]

What would a fair price be for a 140 in good condition (stored inside) w/belly mower be?? One in area may be coming available. Not sure how long it has been sitting unused. Probably a few years! Dusty B

Around these parts anywhere from $2,000 up to $5,500 depending on condition and wear. Most of the higher priced ones have cultivators, fertilizer attachment,fast hitch and good tires. The lower end ones are usually worn out all over.

If you could get that much for yours, you could go out and buy 2, 3, or 4 to replace the one you sold.

I often wonder what mine would be worth with the correct paint and emblems, I have never seen an industrial for sale in restored condition. I do know where an industrial belly mount sickle bar mower with all the fixins can be found. I like my woods 72 under it though for my needs.

Well, Janas has been wanting me to get down to one tractor! Maybe if I sold all my Cubs & equipment and added a little to the kitty, I could afford one like that!! Guess I'll just sit this deal out. Dusty B

There are a lot more factors to consider: 1. What year is it? 2. What condition are the engine, transmission, tires, sheet metal, paint, etc.? A 1979 140 has different value than a 1958 140 and possibly a different user (Farmer versus collector? ). 140's with no equipment are usually fairly inexpensive and you can buy nice used woods mower fairly easily too depending on location and condition. Another factor is location. If it has sat a while it likely might need some work. 6 Volt versus 12? A photo would help to assess the condition.

You will NEVER be disappointed with a 140. They are a little larger and a LOT more powerful than a cub as well as easier to work on with more features such as dual hydraulics. I can say a 140 should be worth more than twice the value of an equivalent condition cub.

I did see a pic of that 140, and it was MINT & ORGINAL.
orginal owner also. I would like to find a Nice 79 but not at that price.

Around here (eastern NC) most 140s are advertised in the 3500-4500 dollar range. Typically that includes the universal mounting frames and rear gangs and some sweeps/hillers/etc. Most of them will have fast hitch. There are of course outliers. I checked craigslist just now and I did see one advertised for $8000 with "all attachments." "All attachments" falls in the same category as "fully restored," it means different things to different people.

Couple of years ago, a NOS 140 sold near Raleigh for $10,000. It had been kept in a shed and was somewhat weathered. There were two people at the auction that wanted it BAD.

Super As typically are advertised in the $1500-$3000 range. IMO, a Super A can be a better value for essentially the same tractor as a 140. A worn out Super A will have about the same issues and repair costs as a worn out 140.

The place to buy a 140 is Kentucky. My friend Farmall51 got a beauty a couple years ago--'79 model with very little use, AND it's several serial numbers past the official last 140. Cost him what a worn out beater would bring here.

Owning a Super A-100-130-140 will make you sell your Cub.

hey now, I still love my cubs and bought more after I got my 140

[BullDAWG]

I fell in luv with the cub but I also agree that after I got my SA I personally would rather them than a cub but I am actually using them so I needed more power to bush hog, plow, disk and the dual touch control is better, not to mention the extra crop clearance of the SA-140 especially the hi-crop even vs the cub hi-crop.... my next tractor will be a SAV-140 hi-crop hopefully with a fast hitch. But back to the original post, here in Mississippi a 140 runs in the $2000-5000 area depending on condition, but there is a listing atm here on craigslist for a SA AND a 140 with cult, planters, fert and other small parts for $5500 for the whole deal, but also seen good to beaters run for $1200, like a guy who doesn't know what he has as he listed a 130 as a 1932 tractor but its actually a 1956. he looked up the casting #'s and didn't know they didn't make a 130 in the 30's LOL and he wants $1500 for it and except for tires its in good shape. So it all depends on how bad they want it gone and how bad YOU want it. I wouldn't pay too much except for a 1950 white one or something else that would make it rare and worth a ton to a colector and even then it better be a good deal or you'll end up spending more than you could ever get for it. If its to be used then compare it to what most SA-140's go for when in good to great shape and think what all it would take to fix it to get it to great shape as spending a little more up front can save you a ton later as just tires and a good engine and tranny is well spent vs one that smokes, has tires that are checked and makes a funny noise when you put it in gear. I'm looking at a SAV that hasn't ran in 2 years. The guy wants $2000 but I offered $500 as until I see it running I can't be sure IF it will run, if the tranny or touch control works and then it may turn into a parts tractor rather than a fixer-uper. I'll spend $500 but not 2k as I could then at least sell some parts and get my money back.
