Price Check Massey ferguson 1010

What is a good running mf 1010 2wd manual shift 1320 hrs on it worth? Everything works and it has turf tires on it that are decent. If I buy it will it handle a 4 ft bushhog/ disc/ box?

I can offer a reference. A local dealer has been trying to sell a VERY nice Massey 1010 with 217 hours and cab. This one is a 4x4 and the dealer has had it for more than two years.

His asking price is $4900 and that has been the price since day one.

The tractor you are looking at will handle a 4' bushhog.

Do some reading about replacement parts availability on this machine. The lack of some parts kept me from considering the machine I referenced locally.

What kind of parts are hard to come by? I traded for the tractor earlier today. Runs and works great. I've only got $800 in it. If vital parts are hard to come by though, I'd be better off selling it I guess. What's it worth?

 

[jb2010]

Anybody? I had thought about keeping it but parts for the engine are hard to come by according to all my dead end calls today. Unless someone knows what to do incase of a failure where u need to rebuild an engine or where to get parts that I'm unaware of, I don't want to risk using it and ending up with a parts tractor. Anyone want to chime in on a value or a parts location or both???

Way it's looking I'm gonna have to talk to myself to get a reply....

You've only got $800 in the tractor? Use it...heck if you can get 50-100 hours out of it and sell it for parts you'll be ahead.

Looks like Japanese built tractor, wonder who made it?
If so, it must be reliable. First time I have heard of Toyosha engine.

They are very reliable tractors. 1000hours is nothing on that engine. Its still got another 4000+ hours to go till some engine work might be needed. I got close to 5000 hours on my 1020 and no problems anywhere. Keep up on maintnence and it will last a good long time.

As for parts I am sure they are available just need to look around.

I have to heat the glow plugs regardless of the temp outside. Even in 90* weather. Is that normal for a indirect injection engine? I've read both both views. It doesn't have any blow by though. Light bushhogging and grading the drive is all I will use it for.

Gonna keep and use it until I sell or trade it. Thx for the feedback. Maybe nothing impossible to find will break.
