gsummers 236 #1 Posted December 26, 2015 I have been looking for a 417-A for over a year. Found one 5 miles from my place. 1986 with 1025 hrs in nice shape, came with ag tires and also got the turf tires on rims with it. Included snow plow and nice 42' rear discharge deck. Needs a little TLC. Biggest blemish is a nasty ding right in the front of the hood, that will be taken care of next spring. Finally have some time to post pics; First pic is the way I got it. The rest are after I cleaned it up. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,326 #3 Posted December 26, 2015 Nice unit , probably weight a lot less without all the mud on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gsummers 236 #4 Posted December 26, 2015 Yes, probably took off at least 50 lbs of mud, between the POs house and his garage it looked like a swamp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
