It has a lot of the optional features such as leaning front axle, power circle, shift-able moldboard and scarifier. Cosmetically it certainly could stand a new paint job and it needs a set of matching tires on the rear tandems as the four wheels are locked together and it causes extra stress and wear if the tires are not matching. It seems like a fair price if it runs well. Too bad they didn't note the serial number so we could know what year it is.

I took a second look at the pictures. The engine doesn't look right and it may have been re-powered with something different. The engine isn't tall enough to be the gas 226 engine and the exhaust isn't in the right location. You can see the serial number tag in one photo. It is too bad the serial number was not posted.

No, I didn't buy it. I just thought I'd post the link in case anyone else was interested.
