Can anyone confirm whether or not Kubota made a model 355 tractor during the early '80's?
If so, any comments on the general (or specific) attributes or weaknesses of this machine would be greatly appreciated.
This machine supposedly has about 1500 hours on it with a heavy duty loader. Worst thing is the 'faded paint' per heavy equipment dealer who has it. Asking $7,500.00. I'm going to eyeball it tomorrow, but as I've never even operated ANY compact utility tractors, I'm in need of as much advice/info as I can get.
In particular, can a frame-mounted backhoe be added to this machine? If so, what kind of performance can I expect?
Any references as to where I might find specs would be appreciated. (I realize a Kubota dealer should have this knowledge, but am reluctant to contact any as my guess is that once they realize there's no potential sale in it for them, they'd be less than talkative).
Thanx,
Jim
