| It depends on how the repair went if it was me. I got stuck with a Chinese tractor I had to replace engine and injection pump on and luckily found a guy to buy it while I was repairing it. Because the tractor was dumped on me in the beginning I couldn't stand to look at it without being reminded of how the original owner screwed me. Tractor turned out nice but I begged the new owner to sell it before I would have to work on it again. He kept it a year and then sold it. The point being if everything went well with the repair keep it, if you are tired of looking at it sell it. Just my two cents |

Depends on whether you want to take a chance on a machine you can't go buy parts for. |

Nice looking 5020, especially with the nice rare loader on it. Don’t see many with a loader. Should be able to get a good price for it if everything works as it should. Like Gary said, they are hard to get pars for. ------------- 1968 B-208, 1976 720 (2 of them)Danco brush hog, single bottom plow,52" snow thrower, belly mower,rear tine tiller, rear blade, front blade, 57"sickle bar,1983 917 hydro, 1968 7hp sno-bee, 1968 190XTD |

Hard to get parts and a rare loader? Sell sell sell sell sell. Did I mention sell? ------------- "Farming is a business that makes a Las Vegas craps table look like a regular paycheck" Ronald Reagan |

| I love the loader. It looks like a stronger deal than mine. I have over 2000 hours on my two wheel drive and would buy another to replace it when I have all out of it I can get. That if it would ever happen. I have a new clutch laying on the floor boards of the old ugly truck that needs to be put in. I would keep it if you have a use for it. |

It looks to be an earlier version than mine. The ID plate on my says made in 1981. I like my little tractor but most of the tasks I purchase it for are just about done. I've cleared a lot of the property off to the point a riding mower can handle it. So I'm going to sell mine as well probably next year. As a winter project I'm going to pull it apart, pressure wash it; fix the dents and rust and give it new paint and decals. The 4' cutter is not even a year old. Should be able to get $5000 for the lot.  |
