Looks like I joined the club.

Just cut a deal with the local dealer last night. He has a used L3650 GST with 1300 hours. Previous owner was a golf course that used it to spread fertilizer and pesticide. Tractor has a leaking "o" ring that the dealer will split the tractor and repair, along with anything else that shows up when the tractor is opened. Price $6,500.00. Add a Bush Hog loader with 5 foot bucket, loaded tires, 6 foot back blade, 6% tax, set up and delivery and I'm out about $10,800.00. Still have to see if I can talk him out of a set of manuals. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Hey, congrats Steve. Silly me, for as long as you've been around here I assumed you already had a tractor. Let the projects begin /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Congratulations on the tractor. I would say welcome to the forums but it looks like you have been around a while.

Good Luck,
Dave

CONGRATS ON THE PURCHASE! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif if u can;t talk him into the manuals am sure u can talk him into welding a coupe of bucket hooks on the bucket. the price sounds real good also. 1300 hrs seems to be easy hours, be advised tho that most tractors use pto speed to clock hrs so anything below pto speed will clock as less hours, at least that is how my b2400 does it. so ther is a very good chance that the tractor actually has more than the hrs, on the hour meter, no big deal! post pics.

Now that is a good idea I hadn't thought of! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks for the kind words guys. Now all I can do is wait until the new loader and blade come in. By that time the tractor should be back together.
