What is the HP and years mfg of the 430. Would it be a suitable tractor for bushing hogging and general purpose? Any idea of value for average condition?

The 430 were 1959 models, but are really no different than the 420's, other than the dashboard and tin. They're 30 HP class and make excellent tractors for mowing. I have one I use an 8' finishing mower on, or it'll easily handle a 5' bush hog.

There are several sub-models, identified by letters (430S, 430U, 430T, etc) denoting the basic arrangement. The (S) standard and (T) tricyle are the most common. The (C) denotes a crawler, which makes an impressive bush hogger (if you can't cut it, knock it over!). The (U) utility is quite low to the ground, and the (W) row-crop utility (features of the tricycle with a heavy, wide, front end) models usually have more options on them than the others.

In fact, I recently listed my 430w on the classifieds but I guess it's too early in the year for anyone to want it. Drop me a line if you'd like to know more. I'm in the Raleigh, NC area.....

I have a 430W.
Most books rate the PTO hp around 29 and manufactured in the '58 to early '60 time frame.
Bucheits (spelling?) farm supply here in Missouri has a used tractor book that lists years by serial number and suggested value by condition.
Try to get one with a live PTO or use an overriding clutch.
Don't go over a 5' bush hog or use with a slip clutch as we had to replace a PTO drive gear two times at $350 for part plus labor. (We brush hog fairly heavy stuff).
I never have used a finish mower on this tractor.
