case442 129 #1 Posted October 10, 2018 Hello All, I picked up a nice 417-8 today. Tractor is complete and in very good condition. Was told it needs a head gasket. No battery but in turned the engine over by hand, no noises. Has a very nice 48” deck. Nice paint and tires heck, the chrome still shines. Has the electric lift on it.

bigcreek 205 #3 Posted October 10, 2018 Nice one, also bought one here in southern Maryland, mine is well worn, over 1600 hours on her. But she cuts nice it came with a newer deck on it and also with the big snow plow and a never before used snow blower. I need to add some picks. Sadly no hubcaps on mine at all, but do have four wheel weights. I paid 700 for it with the extras. scott 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
midpack 801 #5 Posted October 10, 2018 Have one just like it! 3 hubcaps and all... IIRC, that particular model is a "one year" only with the electric lift and hood louvers. I like the electric lift so much i found a complete setup and put it on my C machine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
