Jimmy, many things would determine the value. Area in which you are in , and the condition of the tractor. Could be anywhere from 500 to 2500.00.

Jimmy,
It's worth whatever you are willing to pay for it, and whatever the owner and you come to an agreement on.
It cost me $120,000 for my 87 318, but, the PO threw in a 2 acres of land and a house along with it.
Check the auction site and see what they are selling for.

"From the rules: No "What's it worth" ads. No exceptions."

It only states that in the classified rules IIRC.

I FORGOT - I just paid $750 for my 1983 with the old motor. It has quite a few hours and no attatchements. You can figure a one way blade is worth 250 and a two way is worth 400. Singal stage snowthrowers are usually around 200. This is what they are on the classifieds, I don't know if they ever sell for that money. I had a 317 and 54c blade listed for "the average" price on the WFM classifieds and had very little interest.

Scooter-

I hate to point it out, but if you go back to the "restoration and repair forum" you will see it. It is also posted under each sub-section.

Why is that? If a guy is looking to buy something he should be able to ask. I am sure it falls into the "no matter how thinly veiled" portion of the rules. The guy puts out the "I am going to sell it, what's it worth" post instead of going into the classifeds to post.
Let's start a petition for a "what's it worth" sub-section.
