Still looking for my first AC garden tractor. I found a 611 with HST nearby for a reasonable price. Any thoughts on this guy? It looks well kept. Tractor data shows the 611 with a manual tranny and no hydro. Here it is: https://tallahassee.craigslist.org/grd/d/allis-chalmers/6493921222.html" rel="nofollow - https://tallahassee.craigslist.org/grd/d/allis-chalmers/6493921222.html

Depends on what you plan to do with it

A 611 is a riding lawn mower, not a garden tractor.

Bit on the 'light duty' side, no rear attachments.

I would strongly recommend a B Series for your first Garden Tractor.

I have an HB-112 still going strong.

Thanks Gary. That makes sense. They are hard to find in my area.
