jimt1971 237 #1 Posted October 25, 2012 I have wanted a 1045 for some time. And usually they are way over priced. Today this jem came up on Craigslist for $150 so why would I not buy it. So here are the pics. Jim 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So here are the pics. Jim Did you see the 633 and suburban 551 the seller had also? I am picking them up next Thursday! I told him to post it on redsquare but he said he didnt have the time. His name is Mike, sounds like a pretty nice guy after talking to him. Good luck on your endeavors with the 1045! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littleredrider 409 #4 Posted October 25, 2012 Why is it, if these are so rare, more and more are popping up? I've seen more of these for sale than an 854... I paid little less than that for a lot less of a tractor!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,029 #6 Posted October 25, 2012 I think the RM425 deck you have on the 1045 is a harder to find item than the tractors, good score for the $$$ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I paid little less than that for a lot less of a tractor!!!! Nice score Jim! I haven't seen an 854 for sale in a VERY long time myself. In fact, I think out of most of the round hoods the 854 is the one I see for sale the least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littleredrider 409 #11 Posted October 25, 2012 I haven't seen many 854s for sale. Probly 2 or 3 in the past year. When I was trying to sell mine I wanted an idea of what they were going for. If there isn't many for sale, then the price I was asking was justifiable, but apparently people didn't think so. I now have 2 1045s, and seen 5-6 pop up in the last couple months. Wish I knew about that one, I would have gotten it. I used to look in craigslist all the time down that way, but since started new job stay mostly local now.

Kelly 1,029 #12 Posted October 25, 2012 I've had a 854 on here for sale for a while with only one person coming to look at it, then he buys a 701 I really didn't want to sell, we should count the number of 1045's we know of or gather all the serial #s off them it has been said only 1100 of them were built, I have 5 of them setting here, but 3 of them are very ruff.

littleredrider 409 #15 Posted October 25, 2012 I wondered bout that thread too. I have two, but both are pretty rough. Basically one is just the dash tower, what's left is on the long hood diesel 1045... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
