Here are the 2 Diesel Tractors that I have narrowed my search down to at the moment and that are within my budget. I plan to also spruce up which ever one I choose and repaint so keep that in mind determining costs. Please help me decide which route to go in...Thanks!
Massey 3165: It is in rougher shape cosmetically, but starts right up, runs good no smoke, missing several hood and body pieces and fenders are rough. Leaks a lot of diesel, seams to be coming from injectors and pump, but all systems seem to work fine. Includes older 6' King Kutter bush hog, rough shape box blade, auger with a couple different size bits, and a boom pole.
$2,000
JD 2030: It is in better cosmetic shape, only missing one battery compartment door and supposedly runs good and everything works, owner said it does have a slight leak from the PTO shaft, but that it works properly, also said he uses ether on the 1st start up, so Im sure the glow plugs need some work. Includes older 5' bush hog & roof canopy/rollbar.
$3000
