Hi! Im hoping for some input on a 64 JD1010 Im looking at, theyre asking $3,000. I intend to use it for brush mowing, trails and food plots, maybe more in the future. I fix my own junk, so an old machine doesnt bother me, I actually like this thing, quite clean and simple...
The owner says hes owned it for about 7 years, uses it to mow a large piece of property. Says he is having issues mowing without power steering and has switched to a newer kubota.
Owner says he has paperwork for a head rebuild from the previous owner, and had the generator rebuilt about 2 years ago. Owner says it runs and operates good, that its a solid tractor.
I asked if it smokes, he says it will if hes in tall grass or tight turns while cutting. He says he has been having trouble with rust in the carb and filter, says it probably needs a fuel tank.
I havent seen it run yet, figured Id get a little input from them what know before I take it any farther... Any advice?
