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?

Probably so Ben. We actually use ours.lmao

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

$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...
