Bens vintage tractors 1,542 #1 Posted April 25, 2022 Picked up this 500hr 417 with loader today. Runs and operates awesome. Truth be told I don’t really need it but it was too cool to pass up on. I had 3 of these at one point and had to sell them. 3 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davem1111 2,030 #2 Posted April 25, 2022 (edited) I had a small tractor (not WH, don't remember what brand) with loader like this 20-25 years ago when in PA with (now) Ex-wife. I could *really* use something like this around the farm here - I am jealous! Edited April 25, 2022 by davem1111 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,592 #3 Posted April 26, 2022 I'd love to have a loader on an older vintage tractor. C160 Auto maybe. Nice find Ben! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've picked up more tractors this year than I've seen anywhere outside my own freshly redesigned and properly locked barn! Very nice find. I'm jealous!

Bens vintage tractors 1,542 #12 Posted April 27, 2022 Did some work with the loader today and I have to say this is definitely the best loader I have had. Tons of power and super responsive. I’m working on a review of it for YouTube! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
