sweet looking GT the Craftsman FF
I am 3rd inline to buy or look at it and I posted 15 min after he did
there was a kubota GS5200 HST diesel 3 days ago fer $200 it was tooo cold

no real experience with them but ive heard through the cub vine that they cost a small fortune to rebuild.

Yes, Onan parts are pretty pricey..... if you can find them. You hear me rant about the price of the Mag 18's and KT's all the time. They're cheaper than Onan's to work on! Good news is, just like most all GT's.... if you are good with tools, you can repower them. :beerchug:


Under edit: I don't know much about GT's outside of CC and ..... umm..... some other less tasteful colored ones. The FF series, especially the FF24 was a monster. I had to Google it. Says they were produced to compete with the 400 JD's. Funny thing is, they actually look pretty similar. I remember as a kid seeing them in the Sears catalog and thinking how cool they were. Funny.... I forgot all about them. Be cool to see one of them, a 400 and a 982 go head to head at a plow day!

Those are very nice machines and that is way cheap. Get some pics and if it's pretty nice I'm sure you could flip it and make some money.

You don't have one hiding in your garage do you Todd? :bigthink:

I wish. I missed one a few years ago with a cat 0 plow for $500 but it had the smaller engine. IIRC they were built to compete with the 400 Deere and 982. They are pretty cool looking too and are heavy duty.

It sold
the rear PTO was very interesting
