Ford 1520 should I buy it???

[dingleberry]

Any input you all would have would be great. I currently have a Ford 1700 4x4 with FEL, Bhoe, box blade...The tractor has alot of hours, over 4000 and is pretty rough.

I have found a 1992 or 1995 not sure Ford 1520. The tractor has 1200 hours on it, 4x4, hydrostat, power steering, Ford FEL, Ford 5' Bushog, Ford 5' Finish mower and appears to be in really good shape, runs well, well taken care of.

The seller is very motivated and I have arrived at a price of $10,500 for the tractor, FEL and both mowers.

Is this a good price, is this a good tractor? I would paint and sell my old 1700, keep the bhoe and convert to the 1520. This size is right for my needs.

Please give some input, i am going to make a decision this week.

Thanks,
D

Hmm.. the mowers.. used might be worth 900$ together. The fel.. might be worth 1500 or less depending on the age and use on the equipment.. the tractor?? I see Nh 1920 for 8500-10,000 4x4, etc.

I'd guess that's a tad on the high side. Not a rip off.. but not a deal. Say.. middle to high.. depending on the implement and laoder condition.
