rustbucket 4 #1 Posted July 29, 2008 i have a line on a very nice 854 horse all original and running it comes with all the paperwork and manuals as well as snow blower, dozer blade, and the proper mower deck. the snow blower also comes with the larger pully and papaer work for it. the pully is for the engine from what i am lead to belive. he want to trade it for my red jacobsen with its snow blower left discharge deck and the scrap jacobsen 1200. if i wasnt to trade him he would only want 400 for it. is this a deal or a steal??

DMESS 24 #2 Posted July 29, 2008 I don't know what your Jacobsens are worth, but it sounds like a fair price to me if it's as nice as you say. Manuals and paperwork usually mean a well cared for machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
