I am thinking of taking a Simplicity 7117 on trade. Waiting on the serial number to see what year it is. He said he thought it was an '85 and "runs perfect." Haven't seen the tractor is person yet to see how well it really runs.

Has snow blade which is manual lift and angles. The tractor itself is not hydrostatic.

I know it's not much to go on but am hoping for a ballpark figure. Also, am I able to put Ag tires on it verses the current turf tires? And is this a good tractor for mowing, tilling, pushing snow and possible lift?

Thanks for any help

that machine is good for all of those things you want to do. heavy frame, good rear end, parts available, and will push/pull like an ox.
here in Mich. that would go for $500-$800 depending on condition, how it runs, and more if you get attachments with it.
if you end up buying it you wont regret it. good luck.

This link will give an idea what the tractor should look like in good shape, better link with more photos. this is a garden tractor and plenty strong.

i think he said this 1 had a 19hp motor in it which means it was repowered.
