Default IH 244 3 cyl 4wd

Guys, looking at a IH 244 with Woods 60 inch belly mower. Owner wants $5500 for the tractor and some more for the mower deck Seems a little high? The tractor seems to be in good working order. Minor oil leak, front tires show some dry rot. rear lights not connected. switch does not shut tractor off, 2000 hours.
I was thinking $4500 for the whole package. He just got rid of some Cubs before I got there too
Suggestions? Comments welcome.
Regards,
Chris

Offer what you are willing to pay, if he doesn't take it, walk away....I am pretty sure IH made more than one 244.

Chris,
I used to have a 234 diesel that was a hydro. I think it was a tad smaller than a 244. Mine was only a two wheel drive. It had rear PTO, Cat 1 three point and ran like a top. Turf tires all the way around. Also had a Woods 60 inch deck and 1200 hours. I ended up trading it to a CC dealer for a new zeroturn. They put it on the lot for $4000 and it was gone in less than a week. It was a super nice tractor, all original, and in great shape. I really hated to get rid of it, but couldn't justify it sittin' around. All depends on area and condition, but sounds a wee bit high IMHO. Good luck.

Bill,
I sent Tom a note. I assume its gone. Looks like a very similar tractor to the 244. Thanks.

My 234 I had was a twin to Tom's except Tom's is a gear drive and mine was a hydro. Tom's would be a great deal. Good luck.

That 234 tractor is gone but I am still looking.
Stuck in Cub land right now! Just brought home a skeleton of a 127 for parts last night.
Regards

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
