Custom paint,custom grill, screwed up the decals  but it does have a nice nelson muffler. Too bad he painted it silver.

| What bothers me is representing this monstrosity as "fully restored". Either they are dumb enough to think people will fall for it or just too stupid to know what "fully restored" means. |

Well the good news is it's fairly clean so restriping it and properly painting it would be easier. If those are the actual hours on it and everything works well then I can overlook the so called restoration. $8K is a tad high. $5K would be better. ------------- 1957 WD45 dad's first AC 1968 one-seventy 1956 F40 Ferguson |

| Fully restored. That must not mean replacing steering wheel or gauges or hydro couplers or even the right decals 😡 Sorry for the rant I just grew up on a 180 and hate when people don't know what they are doing or talking about |

I think we are looking at a bona fide get rich quick scheme. I can't run fast enough from sales like this. ------------- D17 Series III,D17 Series IV, 185 |

If that tractor is listing 1,500 hours then I think the tach is a replacement. Did anyone else notice that the muffler is on backwards? ------------- D17 Series III,D17 Series IV, 185 |
