I'd go for cheap, like 50 bucks based on you won't KNOW if all the pieces are there until you put it together. If the engine is not worn out at .030 maybe a set of rings will run it. Model 19's arn't laying around a lot. 'd say its worth going for as B-1 are a treasure. MPH

Best to get it while the getting is good, you can always give it away or part it out later if you don't or can't use it. Some of the stuff I have I got with the intention of using to make deals with. I have that EZ Rake now because of that and Elon has a Landlord. Even if the block is shot, that Model 19 will have some good parts on it. Did you happen to get the engine numbers?

I'd say snatch it. As you know,"they ain't makin''em any more!" I gave $150.00 for a B1,complete,but rough,with a tiller. Supposed to have a rebuilt engine,but haven't done anything to try to start it.
