782D - Auburn, NY
 

I know your not to post on here but is that an 882 with 782 decals?

Good point. IIRC, the 782D and 882 were the same except for paint. The 782D was red and the 882 was Yellow and White.

Yeah, the only difference is the paint between the 882 and 782d. Though looking at the foot boards i think it might have been repainted yellow and white.:bigthink:

Yep, I'd say its been repainted, too much red showing through not to have been. It always scares me to think of buying a tractor that has no sides on it. After all, they were put there to assist in cooling the engine and many people do not have them in place. Makes me wonder just how long the engine is going to last or how many times has it come close to over heating? Do people stop using the side panels because one day someone lost the wing nut & spring that holds it on? YIKES! :bigthink:

& did a crappy job of doing so :bash2: WHY WOULD YOU PAINT A RED ONE "YELLOW & WHITE !!!! " :BB&YS:

Y&W
