Seized Simplicity Snow Blower - Will It Run Again?

A subscriber gave us his old snow blower. He brought it out of storage and started it up. It ran rough, flames shooting out of the exhaust and mice running for their life. He shut it down to clean out the nest and later discovered the 8hp Briggs engine was locked up. After trying unsuccessfully to break it free, he purchased a new machine. Instead of trashing his old snow blower he tracked me down. Will it run again?
