Thanks for the photos. That blade looks strong.

Hi. I ended up with on of these tractors about 10 yrs ago. I used it for about a yr to mow but the deck is only 36 ( I think), so didn't get used much, and for the past 9 years almost none at all. What is a tractor like this worth? And what would it be good for? It is built like a tank, just not sure what I should do with it....

I bought a used Bolens 1050 back in 1973... used it until 1998 to mow, until 2003 with the snowblower.
In 2004 I listed the 1050 with 42"deck(with blown gearbox), snowblower, and tiller on eBay(no kijiji or craigslist here back then)... believe it or not, I had over a dozen locals interested in the stuff. If I remember right, I got over $600 for what I had. Seems there's quite a loyal collector following for old Bolens stuff.
