I bought a 450 at an auction about 5 years ago.
I had the engine rebuilt and a new clutch. My friend found me a fast hitch for it for 250 bucks.
I put that on. I bought a rotary cutter for it and me and some friends built a heavy snow bucket for it. Lots of fun and barley pops, too.
Now, I have way more into it than anyone would pay for it. GREAT. It ain't for sale. Unless I break something, it'll last me for a hundred years with the amount I can use it.
Divide the $$ by the amount of years and I have a good investment. I'm looking for another tractor.
There is always a good deal to be had if you look around, don't get in a hurry. The next one I will rebuild the engine if it needs it. Just two weeks ago there was a Super H for sale, running, for 350 bucks. burns oil they said. sold the morning the paper came out. also AC C for 250 bucks.
good luck
buy it
