Caterpillar 426 backhoe loader - 4wd - extend a hoe

Just in folks, Cat 426 4wd backhoe loader. extend a hoe, manual thumb. 9154 hours. Machine starts, runs, operates as it should. Last couple of owners were home owners - going back last 10 years or so anyway. Pretty straight older machine. Little bit of fender rust as you might expect for age but generally solid. Couple small holes near fender- no major rot, better than most 10 year old backhoes I see, let alone 30 yr old- Floor is good. Rig isn't tight as new but again, about all you could ask for for the age. Now for the bad- and its really not a long list- missing a couple side windows, heater not working, some lights work but not all, clutch cut out buttons on shifter and loader control not working, also sounds like a small exhaust leak- and that's about all I could find. Engine starts very well, runs clean, trans pulls good in all gears, hydraulics strong, 4wd turns on and off as it should, brakes are excellent. Would make a good homeowner, farm, or snow rig if you put a couple side windows in and get heater going. Did have some recent service work, oil change and couple of u joints. Owner was moving south otherwise wouldn't be for sale! Priced to sell at $17500. Vt sales tax applies if picked up here. Delivery available.
