Someone needs to buy this cobbled up John Deere green C and fix it up.
You should be able to buy it for his 1200 bucks, put a C front end under it, take the dints out ot the tin, add a battery box and paint it and get all of six or eight hundred out of it.
600 loss is about par for fixing one up in today market I would guess.

As many times as he has listed it for sale he should be willing to drop the price quite a bit, but probably not enough to make it worth while. It sure is ugly.

I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

Because he's not in his right mind to paint it green.

I'll go out on a limb and say it won't sell this time either.  What is it with these people who paint a tractor something other then the correct color?  There is an AC lawn tractor on the Denver Craigs list painted green and yellow.  Still there after a couple weeks, so I guess there isn't much interest.
