Hey guys new to the board, but I have been a long time viewer. There has been alot of good advice given here so I thought I would look for some. A friend of mine is looking into bying a 1066 with a cab and it has a snowblower with it that mounts onto the front. the blower is in rough shape (fan blades bent and the spout is wore through.) He didn"t know how many hrs. are on the ten but it has a cab and a set of duals.The guy is asking $5000.00. I told him to grab it. He is wondering what the blower might be worth, any clues. The tractor has set for a year and will start but will not keep running. I told him to put on some new filters and get some fresh fuel. Could there be more wrong??? Looking for some feedback.

I have a front mount snow blower that I put on my 966. Not a bad rig and I don’t get a crick in my neck when I’m using it. Major drawback is that the tractor is tied up once it is put on. It takes a bit of time to mount/dismount it. Mine was made by a company called CROWN and its pretty much shop made stuff that can be fixed if you are handy with a welder and a torch. What it is worth is tied directly to the season and the weather. Right now it is probably worth scrap price but if it is January and the snow is already three feet deep and more on the way it is worth a lot more.

I don't know what Johnny here below me is smoking, but from your description, that snow blower is worth its weight in scrap metal. It's clearly wore out. Maybe if it was new, it would be worth the price of that tractor, but now... No way.

Keep in mind that these tractors are EXPEN$IVE to repair. You can drop $15000 on it, easy, if you have to have engine work, tranny work, TA work, tires...

People don't stop using tractors for no reason most of the time. Usually they park them because there's something wrong with them, and they can't afford to have it fixed. You've got to look at this tractor with the idea in your head that there is something major wrong with it, so haggle the price accordingly.

A 1066 is great, I love mine. I can't imagine how that thing would throw snow, about a mile I think. They are great tractors and that sound like a good buy. That blower has to be 8', I would say the blower is worth what he is paying for the tactor. Good luck.
