This machine when new sold for around $1500.00 and is around 17 years old. See this forum for comments about the 1032.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

Not sure, but look on the "Blower/Starter Shroud" of the Engine & read the "Model, Type & Code/S.N." to see when the Engine was made & U can tell how old the machine is. These are "Stamped Into" the metal of the "Shrouds". Briggs Engines for example are as follows: 92902 (Model) 0120-03 (type) 012568 (S.N.)

The last series indicates it was built in Jan (01) on the 25th. day (25) of 1968 (68). I suggest U write these #s down & use the web to go to the Engine Mfgr. Site where they all tell U how to read their "Codes". These "Codes" are necessary when buying "Parts" as well. Ariens has been around for quite some time & may also allow U to research the machine either on the phone or on a Web Site. As I lived my life mostly in AZ. I have only worked on 2 snow blowers in the 25 years of working on Small Engines. Good Luck. John
