Re: snowfire sled?
82 would be the rarest followed by 84. 84 would probably be the most valuable.

Re: snowfire sled?
The Snowfire was built from 82-84, but was not a very high volume machine. Only 175 were built for the early release in 82, about 600 for 83 and about 185 for 1984.
82's are sought after due to uniqueness of the early release, and all the 84's are desirable due to it being Deere's last year. But with only 600 built, the 83's were not exactly common either.
I hope this helps.
