Thanks for running the data Wardner. It is cool to see what the final totals look like. I did a little math beyond yours to see what he would have made without the three big parts.
Total minus the big three $1694.95
Scrap $350 (don't forget he is making more than you because he sells a lot and it is $240/ton machine cast not $180 heavy shread)
Shipping $844
Purchase Price $950
TOTAL (w/o big three) $250.95 (Plus you can figure another $150? for a regular grill, pump and PTO) That would make it $400
At first I thought that would chicken turds, but if he kills one tractor a week he makes $20,800 per year. That guy said he bought at least three tractors at the one sale. Do the math there...
It would really be "profitable" to you and I because we would keep all the parts we "had" to have and use the rest to supplement our habit. I think this is the direction a couple board members are headed in.
The problem is you have to find them for less than $1000 or there is no room for error. The other math we didn't do is tire disposal. Those rears will add up in a hurry. I went to the tractor killer guy in northern WI to pickup my WD-9 engine and there had to be 300 rear tires scattered in the woods around his shop.
