Little Tractor in Metropolis IL had a 555E that he was asking 12K for. I waited a few hours too long and someone else bought it.
A couple posters on another forum had that era of hoe and were happy with it.

test

 

[92b16si]

seemed really solid. no pin play. motor ran strong. hydraulics lifted and soothly. I left the machine up in the bucket and piston and it stood up . no major oil leakes, just from one hose.
