Hello,
I just picked up a GC2300 this week. It came with a FEL, BB and Auger. But one of the things I'd really like to get for it is a backhoe. I found a small 3PT unit not far from my house, but I can't really find any info on the thing.
It's a Kelly B10. It's listed as a 1999, and looks to be in fair shape. Just looking at the ad, it appears to need some paint, and a new seat. It has a PTO pump.
The dealer wants $2850, but my neighbor says it's been sitting on their lot for a while now, so they'd probably come down.
I don't really need a backhoe at the moment, but when I get home next year, there are a bunch of projects I need to get done, and having a BH would make things much easier. Also, if it's a decent unit, it's about half of what a new unit runs. My neighbor said he'd run over to the dealer next week some time and take a look at it for me and check it over for wear, etc.
I know a frame mounted unit would be better than a 3PT, but it's just going be light duty work around the property.
Does anyone have one of these little guys? I see that Kelly still makes BH's, but I can't find anything on their site about this model.
