This would make someone a nice tractor

Id like to have it, I bet I could get ALOT of use out of it and would be surprised at how much work it could do.

If it were 4WD Id almost have to seriously consider it. Im a sucker for anything even remotely vintage

For less than 8K, I can buy a TLB that if needed, I can easily get parts for and will actually do some decent work!!!

My neighbor sold a pretty decent Case MFWD extendahoe for 8K...

Hmmm, are you sure you are not the seller? Can't see any other reason you believe that comb is a great deal.

Complete with a 3 PT backhoe? No thanks!

It's perfect for someone that has small projects and is limited on funds. I'd buy it and love every second of using it knowing that I was getting the job done and didn't have a tractor payment.

The problem people are having with it is that it's just as expensive as a real TLB of similar vintage or a more modern compact TLB with a proper subframe. Value is not about the number of dollars, it's about what you get for them.

He's priced himself out of the local market, for sure. I'm near him, and think he'd have a tough time getting half of his asking price.

Resorting to flea bay, looking for top dollar from someone too lazy to do proper research on value. So funny to see at a farm auction, guys get tunnel vision.
