A tractor recently came up for sale at a dealer in N. CA. It's a 2001
with HST, 4x4, and loader. The MFWD is broken, but the engine runs
and the tractor moves in 2WD.
I have been looking for a few years for just this kind of project, an
HST NH CUT needing repair. I want to dissect a blue tractor.
Problems: the unit has 3800 hr on it, and the dealer clearly believes
it is not worth fixing. Despite being a CNH dealer. I suppose top
dollar for that unit (fixed) is no more than $8500-9000.
It's also 100+ mi (3hr) away, so I have not actually seen it. Nobody
has grabbed it, yet. I suppose if no one has bought it by mid APR,
I will go look at it.
