BPEisenhower 553 #1 Posted March 30, 2020 Hello there horse fans! Been busy with field work and avoiding people/customers... social distance or conversation minimalist, your choice! Anyways, I dropped off a roll off box at a customer's home and have a chance to purchase a 520. Badly sun faded paint, no 3 point. Tach works, fuel gauge works. All guards in place. Has extra set of 4 new tires on rims with new hub caps. Hour meter shows 367 hours. Does have 48 inch deck. $300 is asking price and all extra parts ( many in new packages) are included. Do I throw cash and break out the buffer, or leave it sit? I like my older tractors myself and not familiar with newer. All thoughts pro and cons are appreciated and welcome! Thank you for reading 😄 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for reading 😄 $300 Run don't walk... Even if you realize you don't want it someone here might... They seem to be my favorite... And my sun faded 520 only has 365 hours... Once you have that Onan up on the governor growling throwing snow or mowing grass you'll have a smile from ear to ear... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 29,433 #11 Posted March 31, 2020 I would not hesitate on that tractor Brian. That's a great price & 520's are awesome tractors. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
