I know of a guy who has a model E minniapolis moline on a 1949 chevy truck. I've been told the truck ran ten years ago but don't know if it runs now. It has been sitting outside. Any idea what it might be worth?

I have a 323 that I'm having problems with. Last year everything worked fine. Over the summer I replaced 2 of the rubber finger wheels and worked on a bent snout.
