Am close to closing escrow and will accept offers on my Cat 10. Was listing it @ $3500 but will entertain reasonable offers. Tank is off and in a dry clean place. Tank itself is clean and dry. Wires are new but off machine (let varmints eat somewhere else!). Mag was professionally rebuilt a few yrs. ago. Was in process of rebuilding tractor but ran out of time, as does a lot of people. Has new head gasket installed.

Hello Ismo
serial # 28-- but haven't researched the manufacture date. There isn't a screen on front of radiator. It has been in my possession since 1962. I have the tank and wires off for safe keeping from varmints. When they are put back on the engine will start. From 1962 to 1981 the tractor was used for weed abatement , discing 1.5 acres , about 4 - 5 hours a week. Since 1981 it has been started a couple of times. Have put in new head gasket, have rebuilt the mag, installed new wires, have boiled out the carb, changed the oil to prevent contamination thru condensation. Don't have the time to complete a full rebuild. There are no cracks or welded places, the only rust is surface rust on scratched paint; no rusted - thru metal. Engine cranks free, grousers in great shape. Its just been sitting for these 32 yrs. The seat needs to be reupholstered. The fenders were taken off awhile back; don't know the manufacturer's name but one fellow told me they looked like Bishop fenders, I don't know. Let me know if you need any more info before looking at the Cat. Phrank
