1945 Farmall A Tractor - “Selling with No Reserve!!”

Hello, I’m Marc Schiliro the owner of MS CLASSIC CARS. You might recognize my name or my business name from the beautiful classic cars, trucks and motorcycles I’ve collected and sold nationally. I’ve got over 25 years of classic vehicle experience and continue to learn more every day. I’ve learned a lot and I’m educated in many different makes and models ranging from the early 1900’s to current. I specialize in beautiful classic vehicles that are at a higher level of quality than most being advertised for sale. I only collect number one and number two condition vehicles that are already completed. We slightly redesign them, service them and detail them. I have also coordinated restorations from start to finish but don’t do this anymore. Over the years I’ve collected and sold over 700 classic vehicles which can be seen on the company website sold page. The vehicles are sold to previous customers, referrals and are sold from advertising on various websites, online auctions and live auctions. We’ve featured many classic vehicles at different auctions across the United States. We’ve had many vehicles that have been featured in multiple magazines and multiple websites. I’m proud to say that MS CLASSIC CARS has accomplished some great things with our vehicles over the years. People recognize value in our vehicles and doing business with us. I consider myself to be an expert in the classic car business and would like to put my experience to work for you.

The MS CLASSIC CARS showroom is located in Seekonk, Massachusetts. This location was established in 2012. The MS CLASSIC CARS service department and multiple storage facilities are also located in Seekonk, Massachusetts. The MS CLASSIC CARS operations are closed to the public. A private viewing of a vehicle can be made scheduled by appointment Monday through Friday. The MS CLASSIC CARS inventory consists of roughly 50 classic cars and trucks that we own, service and detail. We’re the only dealership in the country that services every vehicle we sell and documents it with an invoice. I stand behind every vehicle we sell. Each vehicle is presented with a detailed description, 150+ high quality photos and a video. We don’t offer consignments. When you call you deal directly with me. I know each vehicle well and will go over the vehicle of your interest in full detail. I’ll also assist you with any other needs such as trades, financing, insurance or enclosed shipping. I promise to make the process from start to finish easy and enjoyable. I take a lot of pride in this business and our reputation reflects that. I appreciate the opportunity to earn your business. “MS CLASSIC CARS isn’t just another dealer. MS CLASSIC CARS is a brand.”

Marc Schiliro – The owner

I've been collecting classic cars and trucks for over 25 years now and have seen a lot happen. I've seen the hobby continue to grow not only on the internet and auctions but also with the amount of television shows, magazines and websites that are related to classic cars in some form or another. I strongly believe the classic car market is a great place to invest in. When the economy is strong, the classic car market is extremely strong. When the economy isn't so strong the classic car market holds its own. I've sold classic cars and trucks in both economic conditions. The reason classic cars make such a great investment is because people are crazy about cars, especially classic cars. These people aren’t just one age group but all different ages ranging from very young to very old. It’s a very diverse market. I've learned it's not just people in the United States but its people all over the world.

Over the years I've noticed that the higher quality classic cars have always commanded a higher price. Even people who don't have any classic car experience can recognize and appreciate attention to detail. Over the last 20 years the overall market has been very strong and I believe it will continue to grow. Certain classic cars prices are on the rise and others are on the decline. It’s all about supply and demand, not about a good or bad economy. The classic cars that are on the rise are the cars that a lot of people want but there aren’t many on the market for sale. The classic cars that are on the decline are the cars that a lot of people don’t want anymore and there’s many on the market for sale. Of course, if the car is a rare model and spectacular it will command a higher price as I mentioned. Desirable factory correct classic cars that are documented with matching numbers always make solid investments. Custom cars have remained strong because each car is different from the next one. They each have their own character and there worth what people are willing to pay.

Prior to this business I was just a blue collar guy who was working full time at Viti Mercedes Benz located in Tiverton, RI. They’re recognized for being one of the best Mercedes Benz dealerships in the country for customer service. I was very passionate about classic cars and trucks so I decided to sell them part time. Although I had my used car dealer’s license I didn’t have my own dealership. Overall things were going just fine but my dream was to open my own classic car and truck dealership. I decided to give up my full time job with health insurance and a 401K to open a new classic and truck dealership. I had to invest a ton of money to make that happen which required using my family’s savings and acquiring loans such as a home equity line of credit. I also took on a lot of overhead that I didn’t have before. The bottom line is I went all in. Do you think I would’ve done all that if I didn’t think the classic car and truck market wasn’t going to remain strong? “I’m putting my money where my mouth is”. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Marc Schiliro – The Owner

“I’ve always had a passion for vintage lawn mowers and tractors. I’ve collected sold a decent amount of them over the years which can be seen on our website sold page. This is my first Farmall A which I’m proud of. It’s a great conversation piece that will fit well in any collection. I’m so confident a lot of people are going to love this tractor so I’ve decided to sell it on a Hemmings Auction with no reserve. I’m also going to be selling a beautiful 1964 International Harvester Cub Tractor with mowing deck at the same time on Hemmings with no reserve. Yes, they’re both selling with NO RESEVRE!” – Marc Schiliro

This eye-catching 1945 Farmall A Tractor has been restored and is a true piece of Americana. The Farmall A “Row-Crop” tractor was produced from 1939 through 1947. They were built in Chicago, Illinois and Louisville, Kentucky. A total of 117,552 were produced over the eight year span averaging 14,694 per year. The A model features an offset engine and wide front end. The offset engine was known as “Cultivision”. Farmall A tractors are seldom seen on the marketplace. This example was purchased new by the Marks family who lived in Central Pennsylvania. A copy of the “To the Farmall Owner” page with serial number and engine number is included. The original serial tag and a reproduction blank serial tag are included. On December 2, 1968 it was sold to the grandson Wayne Marks. A copy of the Bill of Sale is included. Multiple receipts in Wayne Marks name dating back to 1984 are included. On October 5th, 2005 Wayne sold it to his son James Marks. A copy of the Bill of Sale is included. The tractor had a belly mower and was primarily used to cut grass at their local church. It was purchased in 2013 by a gentleman named David Cory who lives in Lake Ariel, PA. Dave was a vintage tractor enthusiast who wanted to restore it for his collection. Since the tractor was in really good mechanical condition his plan was to do more of a cosmetic restoration and some light service work. He worked on the tractor and did most the restoration himself over the course of roughly two years. It was completed in 2015 and has been on display inside his building until now. MS CLASSIC CARS purchased it from David Cory in September of 2023 and this the first time it’s been listed for sale.

The tractor is in overall very nice condition and presents beautifully. It’s not a concours restoration but it’s definitely a show quality restoration. It retains all its original sheet metal which was media blasted during the restoration. The sheet metal includes the grill, hood, 10-gal fuel tank and fenders. It was repainted in the factory correct red color which looks great. The paint was recently detailed to a glossy shine. It was decorated with all new emblems and decals throughout. The original seat was professionally reupholstered with the original material by Darrell Darst. During the restoration a new wiring harness was added. The front headlights and rear headlight are in working order. The original style amperes gauge is also in working order. The wheels were refinished in silver and wrapped with new Firestone tires that are 4.00-15 on the front and 9.5-24 on the rear.

The tractor runs and operates very nicely. The original International Harvester 1.9L 4-cylinder gasoline engine didn’t need rebuilding because it was in great running order. The engine was prepped for painting and gone through including new seals. Some of the tune up work included new spark plugs, fresh oil and carburetor rebuilding. It still retains the original distributor cap and magneto which was recently rebuilt. The engine has a sweet sound through the singe exhaust pipe. A new aftermarket battery box and tool box was added. The engine is coupled to a 4-speed sliding gear transmission. The clutch is believed to be original and works as it should. The brakes are also believed to be original and work as they should. It’s equipped with manual steering and a two-wheel drive system. It also retains all the original International Harvester bolts with the dots in the center throughout the tractor.

Unfortunately most classic vehicles that are being advertised for sale by dealers, private parties and auctions aren't exactly what are being advertised for sale. This is an industry with no real guidelines and everyone's opinion is completely different. The average consumer doesn’t realize classic vehicles weren’t restored at the factory and are being restored by people in their garages. Everyone’s level of restoration experience is different and it shows in the restoration. An example would be a classic vehicle that's being advertised as an original model with matching numbers could be a phony with a reproduction trim tag and re stamped numbers on the engine block, etc. Another example would be a classic vehicle is being advertised as a full restoration when indeed only a few things have been restored. There are many classic vehicles listed for sale that have cosmetic and mechanical issues with such items as the body, paint, glass, lights, body hinges, gauges, window components, steering components, upholstery, engine leaks and tuning, radiators, transmission, rear end, brake components and suspension components. The consumers are spending thousands of dollars repairing the classic vehicles they've purchased after the sale. A bad purchase could turn into the buyer’s worst nightmare and be extremely costly!

MS CLASSIC CARS specializes in beautiful classic cars and trucks that are at a higher level of quality than most being advertised for sale. I personally have selected these vehicles and take pride in what I represent. I'm not a classic car dealer who is only looking to make a quick buck. I’ve seen dealers and private parties purchase classic vehicles at auctions and online and immediately list them for sale. Most of these vehicles aren’t being advertised correctly and haven’t been serviced or detailed. This business is my career and reputation which means everything to me. I do the best of my ability to represent quality classic cars and advertise them honestly. To be clear I’m not in the restoration business. I represent classic vehicles that have already been restored.

This vehicle is owned by MS CLASSIC CARS and is located in Seekonk, MA. I personally have seen, touched and driven this vehicle. This vehicle has been through a service and detail process which is documented with an MS CLASSIC CARS invoice. I write the descriptions, take the photos, advertise them for sale and answer all the calls and emails. I'll personally go over the entire vehicle and tell you everything I know about it. I'll also give you my opinion if it’s truly the right vehicle for you. I’ll consider all trades and also offer financing if necessary. Once you've committed to purchase a classic vehicle from MS CLASSIC CARS, I’ll make it a very easy process from start to finish. Once the funds have cleared I'll immediately mail the paperwork USPS 2-day air. A CD with the description and photos of the vehicle you purchased will be included in the package. I’ll also assist in shipping your vehicle to its new home.

If you've read the introduction tab or visited my website you’ll probably agree I'm a bit of a perfectionist and represent very detailed classic vehicles. MS CLASSIC CARS has a great reputation and we continue to raise the bar in the classic car and truck world. I sell our classic cars and trucks very quickly because consumers see the value. I look forward to working with you. Please read my website testimonials and eBay positive feedback. Thank you for the opportunity!
