Hello,
I'm new to this forum and although I've owned a small yanmar its been a while. I moved and have 4 acres that need driveway dragging and some dirt pile moving. I found a person selling a Zen-Noh ZL2202FD with the engine blown ( a literal hole in the block). I searched new engines which seems to be D1402 Kubota and found one for about 3500.00 reman. The tractor has a front end loader and is fairly clean for its age. What would be a fair price for the tractor as is? I know there are variables that cant be known and I'd be taking some risk never seeing anything work on tractor. I am able to switch engines myself and have a shop to do it in.
Maybe even bigger question will this tractor be big enough to do what Im hoping to do.
Any wisdom or experience is appreciated.
thanks
