Most collectors have the Junior model.
This is a very different.....and much heavier proposition.
If I had the space and the cabbage I'd love it.

Wow, nice- a Master. Not sure if they even make that one in 1/18 scale. I have a Super & a Junior in my 1/18th collection. Someone will pick that rare puppy up.

Im interested in it. How much do those typically go for? What would be a reasonable price to offer?

Rory, that's what I was thinking, and if it was closer!

I have only seen Juniors For Sale, so I don't know.

I wish one would come up for sale in my area, I already have a Fiat
It would be a lot of work and coin to restore that one.

This helps with value, I think it's the same one.

Someone give a ball park price? I have emailed the seller. Have truck/trailer will travel!

Cool beast!

In our area old tractors are $500 - $2500, depending on what it is and condition, that one being somewhat rare, I've never seen one for sale around me, could go higher.

But, since they asked for offers, I would offer them $500, then let them come back with what they have in mind, or maybe they don't have a clue and will jump at the $500, you never know, but never start with a high offer.

Would be cool to have, if it wasn't so far I'd be interested.

These are becoming the cool collectibles, I bet he wants a lot more than run of the mill old tractor price. You might get lucky and he doesn't know what he has, but I doubt it.

They have a forums just like us.

It would be nice if WHERE in eastern washington was noted in the ad. Could be 60 miles, could be 250+ miles from Seattle. Looks to be a rather large OLD piece of equipment.

Offer scrap value....see if that flies.

I like it ... offer $500.

So if I were to buy this, any ideas how I could get it to Ohio? I don't have time to go out and pick it up.

Call the movers guys on Tv. Make it an epic show. "Moving the heaviest Porsche ever made". Might get it moved to Ohio for free.

Having restored numerous pieces of farm equipment in Montana.
I'd offer $900. That would be a comparable offer on a good Ford 9N.
Most low profile tractors sell for a little more money.

If you do get it. Bring a trailer with dovetail ramps. Tractors are HEAVY and will bend the crap out of most regular ramps.

Good Luck.

I don't think it's as big as some of you think, I'd guess 6000lbs. If semi local it would flatbed, but it's likely too bulky to fit on a car carrier and it doesn't run.
One guy from Canada (Bring a Trailer) got a shipping quote...$7500. This guy also said he talked to the owners "rep".

I'd bet it goes/asking for way more than a 9N. One site I listed I'm seeing projects with some new parts going for $5-8K. If he's been on those same sites as well he may want porsche prices for it.

The article says "two cylinder", so I think that one is a Super. The "Master" ad says four-cylinder.

"A 1963 Allgaier AP144 Master tractor is the most highly valued, at 32,000 euros to 38,000 euros."

Thanks, been looking for something unique to haul the 914. Contacted seller for a viewing.

Too cool. I sent him a message

Operating that truck may require a special drivers license endorsement. If you live in Seattle ( with all of the abundant parking), the neighbors will love it when the new 'toy' takes up permanent residence.

We have several Porsche tractors. A Junior, a Standard and a Super. The Master is the biggest and seems to be the most difficult to find/acquire.

Having sold several tractors as well, restored and non restored, this one is worth at least 25K restored.

Parts are hard to find, so if it is all there thats a bonus.

This Master shows up at all the Porsche gatherings at the XXX Rootbeer drive-in in Issaquah, WA.

I don't know anything about these trucks but that price seems like a steal.
