It was probably an allright machine for mowing your grass but thats it. As far as value goes, its not much as the collecting crowd wont be after a verticle shaft machine from the 80's.

Just to add, I pick up the tin vert shaft tractors now and then, mind you I don't look for them, I pay $25 tops but that is me, I do sell the engines out of most of them, I even gave a member here the left overs from one I parted out, my son uses a B-111 same basic tractor with old style tin on it, to sweep leaves and other chores.

I bought an LT1100 5-speed in the early 1980s from Roger's Wheel Horse (dealer) in Portland Indiana.  It still looks great and still is mowing. It has the best 42" mulching deck I have ever  seen. The  WORK HORSE series gave me (then a very young man with a new job and starting a family) the ability to a own a quality mower from the "Cadillac" of tractor manufacturers.
(I still had to take a loan to buy it.)  Now over 30 years later and several thousand hours of mowing, I decided to move to a zero turn because of some unique properties of another acre of land I have to mow ( The Zero-Turn in this case saves me an hour of mowing time). 

 I don't have room to keep my Work Horse and am looking for a new home for it.  I was hoping my son would want it but he has a postage stamp for a lawn. 
 It will need new front wheel bearing's , clutch adjustment, and maybe someday I would think the engine will need some work...the only reason I say this is that I have never had to do anything but change oil and filters and sharpen blades. Well, I think I replaced 3 batteries. I will post some pictures.

I am asking $275 I am in Muncie/Yorktown Indiana
