Need I say more?

Yes, you do need to say more. When that ad finally expires, or is deleted by seller, nobody will know what your talking about.

I doubt that this thread will be active that long.

What’s the problem here? Maybe a tad over priced but it’s heavier duty than a lawn mower so I have no problem calling it a really compact tractor.

I grew up with one of these:



At 9 years old, it's enough of a tractor.

MSRP in 2004 was $8500. Not cheap by any means for a SubCompact tractor as we call them now. They were built tough for sure. It'll out last the mower deck on it for sure.

Its got a 3-point and hydraulics. I'd call it a tractor. Sub Compact may be a more accurate description in todays nomenclature, but that is quibling.

if you can still get parts from the dealer, that makes a BIG difference.. if you can, then it's worth getting.. else, you'd have to rely on salvaged/NOS parts, or find a machinist that won't charge an arm and a leg for making what you need, and is also not too busy making large runs for other people..

The only local metal fab shop won’t hardly make stuff for individuals.if they do they don’t get in a hurry and charge enough to make it worth while. They stay busy with the large company work. It’s definitely not a practical way to get parts.
