Congrats! That’s a crazy good deal you got there!

So you were the guy that kept calling and texting while I was loading it up. He said someone told him he was selling it way too cheap. I just shrugged my shoulders and continued loading. He set the price so I did not feel too guilty. Yep, a good running Onan Performer 20. Only had to put tires and a seat on it. Most of the paint original. Looking for an original IH dash for it (little worn).

I have dual hydraulic kits for Supers. Blades, I have both manual and hydraulic. Blades do work great on Supers because they are heavy enough to scrape down to the ground.

I am only collecting Supers with Kubota's in them so you are safe. Had to get the 982 to replace the one I sold to a fellow member couple years ago. Now down to (8) 2182's (one with JD44 loader), (1) 1572 Diesel, (1) 2072, (1) 982, (1) 169 w/loader), (1) 1650 dual hydraulics and a parts 782, oh and one of those green 318's. Going to thin the herd so all are for sale if the offer is right!

Welcome to the super club, alas I no longer have my 2284, but others are out there.
Keep us posted on your progress.

I think I remember texting him a bit about not being surprised he had so much interest as it was priced to sell. Never called. I never feel guilty about paying asking price unless it’s something obscene. In reality, a non-running old garden tractor isn’t worth a lot to most people, folks on here excluded.

I’m looking for an ih dash for my 782 as well. I have one to put on it but it’s a little beat up and missing a small piece down by the lift lever.

Yep, I told him "SOLD" on the phone sight unseen, then when I arrived he tried to make me feel a little guilty. I just paid him his money, loaded and left.

The dash I have on the 782 is not an IH but if interested I will go take a look at it!

Fixed it for you

But seriously, 8 2182s?

ccpullin · #28 10-01-2018, 02:46 PM

It's not like I am hoarding all of the 2182's in Iowa, Terry seems to have snagged a couple before I could get to them!

I have had a few 1782's, a 1772 and 1572 also but now have sold them all except for the 1572. Just don't care for the diesels after having gas Kubota's. I have had both the 2084 & 2284 with commands, which are a very good all around tractor. Plenty of power, use less fuel than KT's and start well in the winter for plowing or blowing snow.

You don’t make it easy

I forgot to call you the other day. Sorry.

OK, I'll be the dummy in the crowd.

What makes a garden tractor a SUPER garden tractor. I was told my 2082 (with 3 point) was a SUPER but never knew why. Other than it was large compared to my Dads 1811.
