Mike, is he not asking a price for it, just said what will you offer?
I paid the equivalent of $1800 for my old B6000 and I consider that a good deal, but I know that things are cheaper over your way. It is very hard to put a price on it, sounds like great quality, made from 1973-77 I believe so its quite old. If those are the true hours it is likely to outlive you and me, thouse old 2 bangers are reputedly good for 10,000 hours with good care.
Do you have a price in mind? What do you think it is worth? I cant think that you would be too far off with somewhere around $2000-3000 around here, but as I say its different in the US so your milage may vary.

I hope this helps, feel free to email me using the email I mentioned in my post in the photos section of the site if you want.

Thanx for your response.I think I may be able to purchase the B5100 with the Woods 48" cutter for $1000.00 but I will have to travel about 3 hrs. each way to pick it up.I was hoping there was a way to hook up a snow blower on this unit do you know if that is possible, there is a picture posted on the picture site which shows the owner having a hydro. unit mounted on the front end but not sure how that whole thing works and have not had a chance to contact him to see if he has the answer.
Thanx
Mike

Sounds like a great price if it is as described! Thats is next to nothing over here.
I expect you can get a snowblower for it, but dont expect too much, it is only little, but it will sure beat pushing one about. I have seen these with front blades and I know somebody on here has one with a blower on the back too. Cant remember who it is, possibly Zackerymack, or something like that.
If it were me that tractor would already be sitting in my garage, but I have never been known for my patience.
Have fun!
