Sorry about the tractor.Just be thankful no one got hurt and that it was not in a barn/shed when it caught fire, could have been worse.

Great Video, 10,000 hours she had well paid for the original cost, I agree you guys don't have the time but a collector or hobbist, it's a good deal, I remember we had a Field marshall which we wreaked for scrap a collector bought it and restored as new, thanks for sharing

Sorry for your loss. Like you said good thing it wasn't inside. A guy by Juniata NE lost his shop/machine shed with just about every piece of equipment he owned about a month ago. Don't know how many million dollars were burned.

I saw a video of a tractor that had burnt up a few years back. Someone in the comments had a great suggestion. Get master shut off switches and install them in all of your tractors. If this was an electrical fire, which it appears it may have been, you can at least cut power to it if you were in or near the tractor when it lit on fire.

If i was closer id buy it and fix it. Or keep it for a motor for the other 4440 or 4450s. You could get a cab for 5g. And that burn wasnt very bad. Our 4440 was a ton worse. Melted the rad on it, we fixed it and glad we did. Was still cheaper then buying another.

That really sucks. Like others said, it’s good that it was outside by itself and not inside. It helps you guys have other tractors similar in size to take up the slack. I won’t tell you what to do with it, but like you said it’s probably not worth the time and money to fix. I’d suggest junk it or sell to a salvage yard
