My latest project is to swap an old 924 series teardrop bucket and cast iron gearbox onto a 12 36 tractor. The axles have to be swapped out to 824 so the tires won't stick out bast the bucket. All done with impeller kit and service except for the axle swap. don't know why I do this stuff.....
 
Despite calendar year age, this machine might only have 50-150 hours on it.

We have a 2004 Ariens 1124 Pro. We bought it 6 years ago and I RAN to the seller with $850 cash as he had other buyers lined up. It cost nearly $2,000 New in 2004.

We bought a 926 Pro Summer 2014 from a couple moving south for $600. Put a new disk and scraper, lubed it. It was a snowy winter and I sold it in January for $1,000.

Pro models have bigger engines, augers, impeller, Shute, and the model OP is looking at has an automotive style differential. I believe the motor is a 318cc OHV Tecumseh with somewhere between 14-17 lb ft of torque. Ours starts 2nd pull every time.

The impeller is 14 inch like all other ariens the engine is good at 16 ft lbs

Some 926’s had B&S motors (that’s what the spec sheet said) and some had the “11.5hp” Tecumseh OHV because there was a shortage. Ours had the Tecumseh, as does our 1124. That was just about the time the “Horsepower” lawsuit came about.

Apparently in January 2015 the same 926 Pro that was only worth $600 in August was worth $1,000 to the suburbanite who bought it....

I've got either 414 or 420 snow engine still in the box for my rat blower project.....but can't pull the trigger on a project yet. This 12 36 had a rotted bucket, and could have been welded to fix, but I thought I'd try a 12 24 rat blower out of it....if I really like it I'll do a 420 24 blower, but I may save the motor for a 32 inch platform....so many decisions!
