I really want one in original paint, no loader on it a plus. Can't tell what is covered up or abuse sometimes with new paint. A one owner or second owner tractor would be great. Thanks Tracy Martin

I'd consider a tractor with chains and a loader as "molested" LOL!

Looking for a shedded unmolested low hours original paint is tough at best. Don't mind paying a premium for it. Just want the tractor to be all it can be. These repaints, and loader tractors rode hard and put up wet won't do. If they truely have low hours they will show it. Still searching. Tracy Martin

I'll keep an eye out at the auctions. That is where I have bought almost all of my tractors.

John, auctions or an estate sale is probably the best place, after straight from an owner wanting to downsize. Tracy Martin

I'd say. We should blow up their email with corrections to their ad.

I don't understand, why do you think that tractor is repainted? The only parts that look to be repainted are the rear wheel weights, and I'm guessing that's because someone wanted them black instead of cream. Also how do you know those are not original tires? I have looked at all the pictures and what I see is a nice, clean, original, 175D. Am I missing something?

Yes, there are 2 in ky. I think the one that has a pic is diesel. The other is no pic and limited description.

RW ,take a real good look at the photos. The easy to tell is always the dash photo. Look at wishbone and engine. Overspray on the hood latches. Dirt and grease at gear shift lever. On and on,but that is just my opinion. What do the others think. Kinda interested in that now. Tracy Martin

take a look at the photo that shows the steering cylinder, you can easily see the overspray on the hydrualic lines leading there. It definitely has had orange sprayed one time or another after the original. I think they are out of line on the price as well, and I don't quite believe the description to be all fact. IMHO

Should have added I don't deny the fact that it could still be a great machine., May have been one owner too, But I don't think its as pristine as the descrip sayss

Maybe its just me, but I don't see a repainted tractor there. The hydraulic lines mentioned is cracked old paint, not overspray. What I'm looking at is the hand clutch, floor boards, and pedals all show very little wear. I'm not defending the tractor as I know nothing about it, and I agree, it is WAY overpriced.
