it's a 550 built in January of 1977 on the 1? day of the month second shift

looks like it's been well cared for. That era through the 555B's were tough, good workers
 
Where is it located and what are you going to ask for it? Is it operational? I've been looking for one like that. Let me know please. Thanks.
 
I see it's a 4 lever hoe, is it a torque converter tranny, or a stick shift, couldn't tell if there was a reverser by the steering wheel
 
That's a good looking 550 compared to my old beater. Note that you have a leaking hose in the dipper which is determined by the dipper being on the ground and the little puddle under the yoke. Easy fix usually. I've replaced most of the lines on mine and not a big deal. Also look around for the missing hood panel that's probably laying nearby.

Any idea what this is worth? I'm seeing a pretty large range. I know everything on it is functional.
 
Most people don't like to give estimates on value since it differs so drastically by region. I will stick my neck out and say that I personally would give 8K-10K for that machine in good working condition with a strong pump. Realistically, it should bring more.
I gave 8K for my 550 about 15 years ago and it didn't look near that good. Mine has been worth every penny.
