Man, good looking rails, sprockets, pads, so you can assume the pins, bushings, and rollers are at least good to better. What did they say that there were several minor problems but they had a lot of good parts extra? The blade looks worst of all and it ain't bad. And the rest of the tractor looks good, just needs a hot steam bath some derusting and be ready to paint and I think it would be a sharp little tractor. Be good for building small water ways cleaning small ponds etc. Shameless here you go. Could have a small business ready to go. If I wasn't so dang old I'd be on my way to look and prolly buy.

I could use it for a couple weeks here, but too far to drive home

You know, I see your point. But I drove over the road for years and it doesn't seem to be much to me. I'd leave Kingdom City, Mo and depending on weather, traffic and cops 14 hrs. was an easy step and sometimes 13 hrs. My kidney function had a lot to do with that too! I just see a lot of potential in that little tractor to someone to boost their retirement income. Leon R Cmo

Dog gone it Tuck if I had that machine I could just throw it on the trailer and roll right on up there. 'Bout all I'd need is a good supply of farm fresh eggs, some onions and a brew now and then. Leon R Cmo

Well, Leon I got 2 strikes against me on that one. No beer in the house, although I do have a jug of apple cider I bought last fall, and no onions either. A neighbor has farm fresh eggs most of the time I was thinkin the tracks might be a little hard on the roads too if I were to drive it home  Oh yea, I don't need one that needs final drives worked on either, heck I can't get my yard cleaned up for spring let alone get any projects going.

Went back and looked at it again. Man O Man I'm in heat. That thing is just sitting there waiting for some old man to come along and park it under his car porch waitin for spring. I guess why it looks so good to me is that I had a real good HD5 that I logged with a long time ago. Dang it, everything is a long time ago! Leon R Cmo

Good thing it's NOT near me !!
Wife would learn to run it FAST.
Dig deep trench with backhoe about 6' long, 2' wide, 6' deep..
..ask me to get in to 'inspect her work'..
then use blade to fill in the trench...
oh yeah then SELL the dozer 10 minutes later.
20 minutes later sell off all HER A-C D-14s and stuff.
yeah, you THINK I'm kidding....

jay that's funny right there. I wouldn't be surprised that a lot of our wives would react the same way. Probably not worth it to chance it. Leon R Cmo

It's been for sale since last fall. Thought about it but really don't need it or another project.
