Finally picked her up today.

1988 B9200HST-D

It's in a little better shape than I expected, especially for $1k

Was an airport tug tractor, this one apparently was used to haul the luggage carts.

I guess the starter burned up several years ago. Since they had spare tractors, it just sat in a hangar until it was sold at auction. Only has 230hrs since it sat for so long. Came with a new starter and alternator, and runs like a top.

The engine block is still shiny. All of the original fenders are still underneath the airport bodywork, and look to be in great shape.

Lots of work to do adding the PTO and 3-point, but this seems like a good starting point.

Tim,

Congradulations! Very clean tractor you have there. Should be a joy to work on.:)

Ha! Yeah, that front bumper was 3/8" solid steel. Just removed it this weekend, weighs about as much as the tractor itself...

The parts tractor I was looking at is already sold, so that's a bit of a setback. If anyone has a B8200 they're parting out, let me know.

I've got a call in to Western Kentucky Tractor Parts as well, hopefully their prices are reasonable.

Thanks guys.
