That depends a little on what you call restored. Are you talking a paintjob, new decals, and a tune up. Or are you talking overhauled engine, new tires, new paint, ground up drawbar to radiator restoration. A lot more money involved in the second. An F-20 in my area would cost anywhere from scrap price to $900 to $1200 at the top end depending on what condition it is in. Sounds kind of stupid but when looking a tractor over for value, the tires are the first thing you are going to want to look at. Then its overall mechanical condition. Then completeness. Then paint and decals. Like say an F-20 runs fair, fair tires, and good paint would maybe be around $600. See there is a $300 to $600 difference on what some would call restored and one that is top notch A number 1 redone. Bottom line, look tractor over real good and know what your dollar is buying when your waving your hand at the auction block. Good Luck.
