C47 with Zetor 40 FEL questions

[CajunRider]

I found a Zetor(Century) C47 that was equiped with the system 40 loader for 17K + 1K for shipping. I have the following questions:
1)Is the system 40 FEL OK for use with the C47?
2)Is it a good deal?

 

[CajunRider]

The price for the C47 with the C40 FEL now is 16.5K + 1K. Lemme know what you guys think of the deal please.

It appears to be a good price, especially the $1000 drop in price in one day. That is less than I paid for mine over a year ago, although mine came with the C50HL loader and I do not know what the price difference is in the loaders.

On the Century web page it lists the system 40 as working for the 3045, the model that the C47 replaced. The C40 does not have the lift capacity of the C50 or C50HL, so I guess it depends on how and what you are going to use the loader for if this makes a difference to you. It still has some pretty good numbers though. Century specification

Thanks Duane, I was beginning to think that no one owns of of these when I post and got no answer for quite a few days.

sounds like a heck of a price for a 47hp with a front loader
frt is a killer on anything with today's fuel prices
but that price is a very good price for that tractor you would
most likely give that for at least a 35hp tractor of any brand
except a china tractor, but you can find a good deal is you find
a dealer that does not make a living with just tractors or that is what i found, and most of the time they will take good care of you no matter how far you are ship part and send a pickup or call tag to get your failed part for warranty. Remenber prices go up everyday, we have to blame the price of metal or thats what we here, so good luck on you future tractor.
