Just a feeler, any interest in a 1989 1050?
 

I just wanted to throw this out there; I've got a 1989 CC 1050. I love the tractor, I really do, it's my first (and only) gear drive. We've been through a lot; first engine pull, new motor mounts, broken gear shifter (thank again John :beerchug:) and tons more, but I think the time is coming for us to part ways. My question to you guys (mostly in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, etc) is this: is there any interest from you guys for this tractor if I were to sell? It's in overall pretty good shape, not a show queen, but she's earned her keep on more than one occasion. The engine has just started smoking a little when she gets warmed up. I will say this, though; it has proven to be the best starting tractor I've ever owned. This past winter, even down around -50°, shed kept, she'd fire right up every time. Reliable doesn't cover it enough. Anywho, I just wanted to put a feeler out there, I know they didn't make very many of these units, I think I've only ever seen one other one than mine since I've bought it. I wouldn't want to make big bank off of it, just see it go to a good home, maybe someone that'd want to put a bigger engine in it :bigthink: So guys, what do you think? Anyone be interested in this tractor for an OCC price only if I were to sell it? I'll try to get some pics up when I get home.

PS

Mods, if this is in the wrong section or inappropriate, let me know or just take it down. Thanks! :beerchug:

How many times do I have to tell you I want it?!?!?! LOL! :bigthink::biggrin2::biggrin2:

Are you really serious this time? I seem to recall a time I asked you and you said you needed to hold off :biggrin2: :biggrin2:

1050
 

Here mine, i think there's 3 of us here that have one. I bought it with a bad clutch and trans. I put a cast trans in with a 16 tooth 2nd gear. It came with a tack that said 350 hrs. I think someone has put a new motor in it. This pic is when i was pulling firewood up the hill in a sled. Mike

Good looking 1050 :beerchug:
