If it's a runner with decent tires and doesn't smoke like a pig that's a fair price.......

Check for clutch pedal play, how much free travel in the clutch (PIG to replace) and steering shaft play. Those three details are a real good indicator as to what kind of life it's had.

For $1500, you're lucky I'm not closer, or it'd be gone already...

In your area, the Ms and MTs are going for about $3500.00. I sold 2 of them a few years ago They were repaints with good rubber and ran well.

Go for it at that price.

I paid $3500 for mine out of Wa. state couple of years back. It came with a loader, plow, & grass mower. $1500's good.
