Dave,
I ended up buying new, over $700. The used ones cost up to 80% of new. My hood just fell apart this winter. The mounting areas on the nose broke off. My old side panels are actually in decent shape, but I was afraid that they were getting brittle as well. I plan on keeping this thing for at least 10 more years. I thought about the 82 series fix, but I really like the way the cyclops tractor looks. I did realize this week that these things can become an obsession. I actually spent some time thinking about putting HID lights on it.
