Gentleman has this listed on our local Craigslist. yanmar tractor

Price was to low for me not to go look at. Found out it was a YM177 and look at this. Yanmar Tractor models to avoid Long story and probably no one interested but just in case someone out there has a YM177 and needs parts this tractor is pretty much complete. It has a 2W80 engine. Yes, I looked at the tag correctly. I am just guessing the tractor was manufactured pre 1970. It has a crank slot in front and a crank engagement on the crank pulley.

One more note about it. It has two 8.3-22 Bridgestone deep deep lug tires on the rear. Gentleman stated he put them on it. They are not new looking but sure not worn.

I'd say that one is 'avoid at any price'.

I think its the same model as one I saw on Craigslist ...... and the single only other one in existence so far as I could find was in Thailand.

Can you tell me what the asking price was? Thanks,

I have slept since then and can't remember for the life of me what he was asking. Sorry. :confused3:

I do remember thinking the tires were nearly worth his asking price. I also remember he met me on the road and led me to his location. I am not sure I could even find it again. If you are seriously interested I will drive back up in that area and see if it is still there and available.

Yes, if the price was low enough for doing well with parts, then snag it. Else leave it alone since the parts are a strange bird to get a hold of. Too bad though. I did find a few here in the USA via google images, but in bad shape.

There is one posted in Morgantown, NC for $850. Someone has painted it as a John Deere 670. Don't know how to link the posting.

Simple, just highlight the web address in the top of the borwser, copy and then click in the reply here to paste. :)

With the taped on black plastic trash bag over the engine, my guess is the head blew. So, this would be more of a parts tractor. To bad that he is asking so much for the dead machine. With it being green, the parts would make a Yanmar look more freaky. haha

Definitely not a YM1700. I see a lot of differences between that and my 1700 in addition of the exhaust.

I wonder if that is what this one in Reno is.

Yanmar Tractor Diesel with Box Blade

Claimed to be a YM195 [YM1700] but it clearly isn't - the exhaust is on the wrong side.

He's asking way too much at $3K for that little machine. A totally refurbished from the ground up by Fredricks or TractorCo in WA state would be a better deal for the same price. There are at least 3 other Yanmars of larger size and more Hp around the same price out on the CL in Reno.
