I am looking to purchase a 2011 Case 440-3 with only 600 hours. Cab with A/C, 2-speed, and ride control. Price is $33k. Previously owned by landscaper but being sold by used equipment dealer now. Always stored indoors. That is the original paint and condition is about as good as it gets for this age. Fires up fine and everything looks good. The only thing that bothers me is when I looked through the side grill plates near the bottom of the cab at the back where the boom is. You can see corrosion on the injector pump, metal hydraulic tubes, and other from when the landscaper pushed snow and some snow/salt got in there. We tried to tip the cab but was so heavy we couldn't get it far enough so I wasn't able to get a closer look. I have to make a decision now and can't go back to look at it again. Is that corrosion minimal and still worth buying the machine or will I have to deal with a nightmare of replacing the injector pump and a bunch of rusty hoses or worse in the future?Please look at the pictures. Worth the price? Price is not negotiable. I have included a few pictures of what I could see on the inside. Your help is much appreciated.</blockquote>
