Purchased a Work Horse GT-1100 Today

[felker13 4]

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.

Great find, you shall love this Work Horse. I have one with many hours on it and it runs just fine. The B&S is a tough little motor.

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.
