Condition 

6

The tractor has been restored but shows signs of age and use, including paint chips, a paint run, and some imperfections in the metalwork. The front tyres are old and cracked, though new ones are supplied if the reserve price is met. While mechanically sound, there's evidence of repairs on the engine block and the steering wheel has a used patina. Overall, it needs some reconditioning to bring it to a higher standard.
