Ariens ST824 worth a rebuild?

I recently picked up the bones of an Ariens ST824 snowblower. It's been sitting in a co-worker's shed for the past 4 years. It's currently missing the engine, wheels, and the chute. Supposedly, my co-worker's brother has all the missing parts except for the engine. Assuming that I can get the missing parts back, do you think this thing is worth getting rebuilt? The way I figure it is, if I spend a few hundred bucks to get this thing running again,, I'll end up with a much better machine than what I could afford if I bought a new one. Also, if this thing is worth getting rebuilt, any idea what something like this would cost? Thanks, Lou |

I have a Ariens AT824 and it feels like it locked up on me at the end of snowblowing a couple days ago. The elec. start just makes a terrible sound when pushed, and the pull cord can't be budged. Anyone know what the trouble could be, and if so, what I can do to fix it. Thanks, Bob |
