This is an 80’s model Ariens snow blower that runs like a champ. I used it for a few seasons now and would like to upgrade due to the size of my driveway. It was Ariens orange but the rust was getting to it due to age so it was painted with a black “rust stopper” paint. (better than looking at rust) -5 HP Tecumseh engine. 4 forwards speeds with one reverse -Newer tires – Also have chains for the tires -new belts -tune up in 2009 before the winter season. Does have electric start but I never used it. ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220452.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220452.jpg) ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220450.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220450.jpg) ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220453.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220453.jpg) ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220451.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e252/speedracer18t/P9220451.jpg) $135 ---

these things are BAMF’s. after the front drive on mine broke and I had a 36" put on I would do the sidewalks on my whole street just for the fun of it. put the chains on and get a 36" front end and you will not regret keeping it. p/s I think I paid three something for mine 2 years ago. GLWS ---
