What is Collector Quality IHC 1086 with 4500 Hours Worth?

[Pete]

Andrew P., Fort Worth, TX: “Just curious what you thought my IHC 1086 is worth. 4500 original hours. One owner. 100% original in every way except tires. Never spent a night outside and is collector quality. Thanks.
I would not hesitate to say it is the nicest original tractor for sale in the country at the moment. I was hoping to get $20K for it, only had it for sale two weeks now.”

Here are a few pics of Andrew’s very nice IHC 1086 with 4,500 hours:

I shared with Andrew the facts on the nicest condition IHC 1086’s I’ve seen sold over the past few years with some creeping up into the high $$ teens even up to the mid $20K range.

$20 000 would be a good deal compared to a modern 100hp tractor with 4500 hours.
