Pippin Backhoe on a 1941 H - perforrmance price?

Posted by Dave in CT on December 13, 2003 at 22:14:18 from (64.252.220.14):

Fellow at a nearby equipment dealer is selling a 1941 H with a model 116 Pippin backhoe. He wants $2500 for the complete setup but he said he'd sell the backhoe alone for $1500. I didn't note the make/model of hydraulic pump but it runs off the belt pulley drive (the belly pump has been removed).

I have two questions:

Is this a fair price for the backhoe alone?

How do these old backhoes perform? Are they so slow they are more of a curiosity or do they come close enough to modern backhoes of the same size as to be worth considering.

TIA

Dave
