Price Check Fair price on a L245 tractor?

[turtle]

I just became the owner of a JD770 with 26 whole hours on it, and now I have a Kubota L245 to sell. I would like to get a better idea of what she's worth. Serial number is 52689. I do not know the year of manufacture. It has about 680 hours, 2WD, 3 cyl diesel, runs great, decent turf tires, belt-driven 60" Woods belly mower that was recently rebuilt, 3 point with 3 speed rear PTO, and tire chains. Parts have been easy (if not cheap) to come by when needed. The problem is, it's not much to look at. It has a paint job from a previous life, some rust and numerous dents and dings. No major sheet metal damge but it has sat outside for much of its life. Aside from its poor appearance, it is a great functioning machine (I have owned it for several years). Can anyone offer their opinion? I am in central Illinois. Thanks for helping this rookie!

This is for the tracor only and I'm not sure if I got the model and year exactly right. It would be best if you checked out the site for yourself... You get 3 free searches per day or unlimited if you register (for free).
