- Currently Kubota L4600HST, two Massey 265's, Massey 230, Kubota M8540...... Had Long 510, Mahindra 3510.Ford 4000, Deere 4230.
Well, I just bought a new Kubota L4600 HST last month and thought I had bought my last tractor for a long time until this afternoon.
Was looking thru the classifieds online for a disk for the Kubota and found a listing for a 3510 4x4 with loader and 5 ft rotary cutter about 4 miles from my house.... Add read runs operates good but need some minor work. $4500 obo
I have a couple of friends looking for tractors ,figured wth its only 5 minutes away and went and looked at it.
When I got there I found a 03 3510 that was weathered with that nice Mahindra pink hue to it...Side panels off of it but there, leaking QC on the loader. Both tail lights knocked out and the black plastic trim on the fenders needs replaced. The subframe for the loader has cracked and needs rewelded, and a rotary cutter that looks to be 20 years old but still quite functional.
I walked away the new owner of it for $2800 ..... I will pick it up tomorrow after work and give it a good steam cleaning and start going thru it and give it a good service.
For those with a 3510 is there anything problem specific I need to look for ? And what are these selling for used ? I will probably fix those items, give it a repaint and put it up for sale.
