Neat looking 5000 on Craigslist

Who knows what is under the paint and the price to me is insane (which is what caught my eye to look at the ad) BUT - this is a nice looking tractor so I thought I would share. Those R4's on the front give it a pretty wicked stance, this thing looks business.

Great looking tractor for the cool factor alone. I can't see paying that though.

why traction tires on the front?

I'm sure the tires are pure cosmetic. I'm not a poser. If I want traction tires on the front, the tractor will have a front differential.

Since there is no mechanical issues discussed, I'm guessing it's all pretty paint. For example if it had said "Fresh Overhaul", "New Clutch", "Transmission completely rebuilt", etc., the price might be justified. Since none of that was mentioned I'm guessing it runs and has a very good paint restoration.

With that said, it's got $3500 worth of tires and cosmetics, not counting labor. So that leaves the tractor itself at $8500. A little high.

I've got $11,000 in this tractor.

Good looking tractor but I agree the front tires don't fit since it's not mfwd.
