Collector or Pulling Tractor

[Buckmaster]

Need some help and suggestion for those more knowledgeable...

I have a 1984 Wheel Horse C165 lawn mower with 8 speed transmission. It has the highly desirable 16 horse Kohler cast iron motor and a 42" cutting deck.

I know some guys collect these mowers and some guys use them for racing and/or pulling. Overall this mower is in good condition and fully functional.

I know longer have room in my garage for 3 mowers.

Any ideas of what a fair market price is on such a machine?

Oh, 8 speed manual transmission there Jesse.

By the way, You guys haven't come close to the reserve yet. lmao

This mower is cleaner then Phil Hick's equipment.

Probably so Ben. We actually use ours.lmao

I have one for sale right now which would rival the wheel horse in cleanliness though.

Appraised at $800-$1000. Open to trades before it hits Craigslist. :smiley_coolpeace:

$200, a box of .22LR and the blind I have that is yours!

Damn man...those are sweet little tractors. If I had a place to put it...I'd be all over that in a heartbeat.

What makes it worse is that I was actually looking at internet auctions of Chalmbers last night and almost started bidding...

You can do it Huck. It's only one third of your paycheck.
