I went and picked up a SnoBee 7 today, about 10 miles from my house. It was bought new by the seller's father and handed down to him. He decided to get a new one this year and found me thru a friend. It shows some wear, but starts right up and is all there. I probably won't use it much, but it will keep its little sister company out in the barn. I have $125 total in the both of them.
  The SnoBee 6 is quite a bit smaller.....

Darrel I got the mower home (last year)...been sitting 30+ years and shows it. At least the 9' bar and sickle were in good shape...even after the incident at the Super 8..... ------------- ALLIS EXPRESS! This year: |

Greetings
I also recently acquired an Allis Chalmers Sno-Bee 7 snow blower. It has a 7 hp briggs and straton engine that runs great, but the tranny has some issues. I am debating about the transmission. It is very difficult to push which makes me wonder if it is in gear. Turned off I can put it in R and N, but not into 1 or 2. Has anyone worked with this tranny. I do not have any experience, but I am near Rollg so I could get some help. But I do not want to waste my time if it is a lost cause. Any ideas would be great Greg |

Greg, I have a newer 8 hp AC blower with the 3 speed trans and was told that it is the same as a lawn tractor. Maybe you could find a doner from a mower.
