1981 Sears FF18

Good Morning All,
I have a 1981 FF18 that I bought out of a garage that had been there for 15 years. This is in great shape. What would
one of these be worth? I also have a 1967 commander in great shape I would like to sell.
 
Here are a couple pictures of the ff 18

Thanks. I bought for a winter toy to Play with. I cleaned it up and put new tires on the front and changed the ignition. Deck is in great shape also. I took it apart to clean it up and paint. Messed up one of the deck pulleys Getting it off

Guys and Gals.. this is a long time coming. I was doing some 'paperwork' the other day and came across a Sears Craftsman mower. Upon further inspection it had molded into the axle the place for the lower arms of a 3 point. I messaged the guy on letgo. The guy said it was still available and I could come today to check it out.

Well I went to check it out. By the date code on the Briggs I figured out it was a 1981. He said his dad had ordered a shortblock from someone in Wisconsin and he remembers him ordering one for a 18 hp. I've searched high and low. This is the mower I've been searching for. I have not collected in almost 5 years .... But guess what.... I'm baaaaaack! Once you have been bit you can't get it out of the blood.

PICS!!!!

My manual does not list the mule drive belt for the deck. I have also searched and cannot find it anywhere, I'll have to do more digging.

If you do Facebook, there is a group called Sears Craftsman FF tractors that's pretty good.


I use my FF24 mainly as a trailer mover, I've considered some day to build a front end loader for it.
