My questions:
How many hours on the tractor?
Any mechanical issues?
All implements work?
When is it available for viewing and/or is it parked where I can take a look at it?

His response:
Not Sure... I have not owned it for the last 29 years so I can not verify hours.
Needs a muffler, has the usual leaks and shows signs of use!
As far as I know, I have not used all the implements, I have used the
front loader and backhoe... they work just fine.

Seems a good deal. I have emailed back a question or two, but wanted to draw on the experience here on the board.

Thanks

$6,000 with a backhoe?

Jump on it today or it will be gone!

Just be sure to test-drive, to verify no major problems.

At that age/price expect some leaky seals, worn tires, etc and budget another $1,000 to put it in top condition.
I think that's the model with reverse-rotation pto so it's a big plus to get the correct rototiller.

If you decide you don't want it, PM me. I'm nearby and might buy it.
