I have a 1970 L-225 that just trashed the transmision according the dealer. They want 3900.00 to fix it or will give me 500.00 on a new trade. I would rather sell it than give it to them. Am I being stupid or is there a market for a fine running old tractor without a transmision?

I'd ask around. Maybe even advertise. I'd rather see a good old tractor go to a young guy with more time than money.... And can sure remember the time when I would have jumped at the chance to pick up a tractor that only needed some transmission work. ....

I would get a second opinion on the repair work, as well. I cannot ever remember a $3900.00 Kubota repair bill coming out of our shop, and we have been Kubota dealers a long time. I would find out exactly what the dealer is planning to do and ask to see the parts that they are going to replace. I hate to second-guess fellow dealers, but it wouldn't hurt to check. Some of the slower moving parts for the older L-series models tend to be pricier than others. If you have part numbers, let me know and I will give you the list prices on the parts to make sure that they are not jacking the prices up way above list. ....
