I saw one of those on craigslist several weeks ago. Interesting and unique but it seems weak in power for a 2 stage.
Thats the kicker ,it always got the job done.Just 3 /12 horse power.
That little thing kicks butt. Loud as all He** Of course you can't cpmpare it to todays machine,but man it works. I think I have it 20 years.

I think I have it 20 years. It seems well built. It got me kinda interested for the use of composite material and mixing of 2 stage in a single stage package. Almost picked one up just for grins. But I decided not to until I have a organized way of keeping more than 3 snowblowers. Unfortunately, our neighborhood doesn't allow detached outdoor storage or sheds.

Interesting 2 stage Ariens. I had one of these and it was stolen in an underground parking garage at an apt. building I was managing. Still ticks me off! It wasn't fantastic, but did a decent job.
2011 Ariens Pro 28; Toro 210R, older Powerlite and a generic single stage w/ Tec. engine. God Bless America!
