ebinmaine 72,719 #2 Posted July 24 It would be difficult to offer an accurate amount without pictorial help. Got any pics? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adsm08 3,265 #4 Posted July 24 A C-Series tractor with FEL seems a bit of overkill for "yarn work". My wife seems to get by just fine on that with only some crochet needles. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 10,036 #9 Posted July 25 Looks like it has a forward swept front axle and heavy duty hubs added to the front. Nice wheel weights and a larger weight box. Also a nice arm rest seat. I’m thinking around $2800-$3200 ? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 60,074 #12 Posted July 25 If it has been listed since February of 2024 and hasn't sold they may have too high an asking price. I would also agree with the $ 3,000 range. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stone 3 #19 Posted July 25 Gt14 it has a loader. He does state that it is not charging the battery. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handy Don 14,077 #20 Posted July 25 1 minute ago, Stone said: Gt14 it has a loader. He does state that it is not charging the battery. Loaders can put a lot of stress on the tractor in many different areas so judging price is hard. Engine, hydraulics, electrical, tires, etc. Also, many owners neglect preventive maintenance and “run ‘er till she breaks” and then fix only what’s broken. Having to dismount the loader for some tasks gives another reason for procrastination. Fixing a “failure to charge a battery" can be as simple as cleaning a corroded wire connection, a modest job of replacing a voltage regulator, or as involved as replacing a shorted stator. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
