Need Info/Pricing on AC 616 Hydro

[Guest]

I have an opportunity to buy an AC 616 Garden Tractor with mower deck, snow thrower, and front blade for $1,400. I believe it was manufactured in 1984. I don't know too much else about it. Does this seem like a reasonable amount to pay?

Cheapest price I have heard of, if it is good running condition. Make sure the engine is in good shape, almost two grand for a new short block.

I just bought a 1982 Simplicity 7117 with mower, plow, snowthrower, snow cab, weights and chains for $1700. Looks like you have good deal.

The AC 616 Hydro Made in 1984 was a lawn tractor with a 42 or 48 mower that price might be a little high unless in excellent condition Mark

I was thinking of the 1972 AC 616, which is a larger tractor than the AC "616 Special" made in the 1980's
