I don't understand the 'collectors model'
comment. If you want to _use_ the tractor, then you don't
want something that is more valuable than
normal. you want a normal tractor. What would make this tractor special anyhow?
Is it painted Gold? That's the only collectors
model I would know about. SoS is great until it breaks. If you are a good
mechanic & can tear a tranny apart & put it
back together again, buy it cheap & have fun. if
you take your stuff to a mechanic & pay $90 an
hour, RUN away. Because they are less
trusted, they sell cheaper. It comes down to a
dice roll - if the tranny holds together or only
needs minor adjustment for years, you did
good. if it carps out in 6 months you didn't
waste too much money. SoS tractors in the real world are worth less
than a good 5 speed similar model, so if you
are looking to pay more for it - they might be a
seeing you coming..... --->Paul
