I don't know anything about the seller, but this looks like such a nice machine that I almost wish I needed it...
John Deere 430 Diesel Garden Tractor
A perfect example of the the old saying "They don't make them like this anymore". This 1984 John Deere 430 garden tractor with 60”shaft driven mowing deck, 3 point hitch and rear PTO is gorgeous and in excellent condition. Many believe this to be the finest garden tractor ever built. It’s getting very difficult to find them in this condition. It has a 20 HP Yanmar diesel engine with only 1355 hours and a Hydrostatic transmission. Tractor has dual front hydraulic ports for use with a hydraulic snow/grading blade or front end loader. With the 3 point hitch and rear PTO it’s completely ready for a garden tiller. This is a serious piece of equipment. All the sheet metal was removed, stripped down to bare metal, primed and repainted. All decals on the fender deck are new. The mowing deck was scraped, wire brushed, primed and repainted. The engine, transmission, steering, brakes, hydraulics, gauges and lights are all in excellent condition. The tractor has a new muffler, battery, universal joints in the drive shaft and a nearly new seat with a tilting spring suspension mount. The 60” mowing deck is extremely heavy gauge and very solid. It should last for another twenty years, but did have some minor surface pitting under the mower deck shields prior to repainting. The mowing deck gear box, bearings, belt and blades are in excellent condition. Note: if you don’t need the 3 point hitch, I can remove it and deduct $300.00. If you don’t need the rear PTO, I can remove it and deduct $600.00.
