grinchsr 599 #1 Posted April 8, 2015 I am new to the 60's Wheel Horse world. I am looking at a one owner 857 with original paint-snow blower-and a nice deck. Garage kept all its life. What would a ball park number be on this providing it runs well with no smoke? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheel Horse Collector 47 #2 Posted April 8, 2015 seeings how it has a blower and deck ballpark 400-475ish. That's just my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,893 #4 Posted April 8, 2015 I have purchased two 857's over the last two years. Both have come from the Maryland or south central Pennsylvania area. I will tell you that in my opinion, a nice 857 with accessories, that has been maintained and garage kept, should be valued at a price not unlike those mentioned in the first two responses. If you can get it for less, all the better. My method has always been to take (in cash) the most money you are willing to pay, offer less, and settle somewhere in-between if possible. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #5 Posted April 9, 2015 @857 horse, There ARE Horses for sale in Virginia! You gotta be quick and have cash. Picked up a near mint 1972 Charger 10 auto with a deck and blower Monday. Solid searching and quick response get some pretty good results. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
