It’s funny I decided to reply today, after I sent it a guy got back to me and Friday I will officially own an old CO OP E3/ Cockshutt C30. I’m beyond excited, it has a loader as well so it’ll be great for what I need done around my property!I've had this 1981 Yanmar 2210 since it was imported and refurbed by Fredericks Outdoor in 2011. Been a great tractor. Dead nuts reliable and so simple to work on. I've replaced the starter solenoid and the water pump in the 13 years I've owned it. Pretty much every part made of steel except the seat, the fuel filter see thru, the radiator overflow bottle, the cooling fan, and rubber hoses and bushings. It's old school cool.
Yanmar used to make most of Deere's small tractors, and they were basically the same as the YM models like mine, with a few minor changes to meet U.S. regs (throttle direction, safety stickers). And, green paint, of course.
Fredericks still refurbs and sells 1980s era Japan-imported Yanmars, but they aren't quite the great value they were ten years ago.
