Purchased a Work Horse GT-1100 Today

Recommended Posts

felker13

I am very new to finding old tractors so I am not 100% sure if I got a deal or not. Today at an estate sale I was able to pick up a Work Horse GT-1100 for $65. It needs a lot of clean up, and as of right now I am not 100% sure of the working condition. It did come with the snow thrower attachment, and even though it isn't pictured, I also got the mowing deck as well. Not sure what these are worth, but any info would be much appreciated! I have attached some photo in its current condition.  Thanks!

Great Deal.  The chains and weights are worth 65 to the right person.  If you can't get it to work, you should be able to part it out and more than recover your money.

You got a good deal! If you're the slightest bit handy with engines mechanical things, or a just a good learner, you'll find your new Horse to be remarkably simple and straightforward to work on. Only thing to watch out for is that, like all 90s-era garden and lawn tractors, there's the extra safety switches and their wiring. A good scrubbing ought to help get the crud off so you can find the gem underneath.:thumbs:

      Gday Members, I’m now selling my favorite WheelHorse WorkHorses, with a heavy heart.   These were the first of the WheelHorse tractors I had gotten that turned me onto what a great machine they were. 
      Anyways…although I’m not sure of the years, due to faded tags, they are True WorkHorses, so 82-84 vintage?   Both are the white ones.  First up is a GT1100, Briggs 11hp, 8 speed.  Has chains on rear. Had a new carb on it when I bought it, although I suspect that it’s not the exact unit, since the choke is not hooked up. I manually activated the choke to start.  Been sitting, so I will clean fuel system and replace battery.  The second is a GT1142, 8 hp Briggs, 8 speed.  Currently has a lightly used 42” Replacement Toro Deck.  I bought this from the original owners daughter, who blew the engine on it after she took up mowing duties after the death of her father.  So I sourced a replacement engine, replaced carb and battery.  42” Deck was only 1 year old when I bought it 6 years ago.  Shows very little use.  I cut with it 1 time after I got it running.   Ran / Cut great.  But it’s been in storage since.  Tires were original and I noticed 1 was low last week after sitting.  Filled it up and been fine since.  Battery will be replaced if necessary.  I’m looking for $1100/BRO.   I still have a couple sets of weights and chains available, as well as other decks and various parts that I’m liquidating.  The whole shop, tools and equipment is going too. 
       
      Thanx, Jay

      Show off what your doing from the seat of your Horse!!! Fixed up a mowing deck for the 1277 and put the plow on the C1014. Getting ready to level a topsoil pile and going down the block to mow the small park to test the mowing deck out.
