C-111 Restore

[Daddy Don 889]

This is the "Spring Project"

Picked it up a week ago and I said I would wait until spring, but just dont have the patience to wait.

Here is the found condition

Here it is today...

Found a set of new rear 23x9.5x12 wheels for $40.

Looks like a nice straight tractor to start from.

I'm a big fan of "fatty" tires also. I love the dragster look! I have a couple sets ot 10.50's on the deep/wide rims that look awsome on anything I bolt em to.

Anyone have an electrical schematic on this tractor?

[Buzz 502]

You can download an electrical manual from Toro that has your wiring diagrams in it here: https://lookup3.toro.com/request/request.cfm

Enter 91-11B801 for model number and "none" for the serial number.

Buzz,

Looking for the actual schematic, not the parts listing. Could not find any schematic on the site, just the picture with part numbers.

[Buzz 502]

Don you did something wrong. Click on that link again and put model number in and "none" for serial number. It gives a list of manuals. "Wheel Horse Electrical Service Manual" is the bottom one. Download that then scroll down and open "Section IV- wiring diagrams". Scroll down, diagrams #9 to #12 are the ones you need. :scratchead:

[Daddy Don 889]

Will try it again, did not see the manuals.

Did a little more tear down today.

Look,

New Blades...LOL

[Daddy Don 889]

Found it this time Buzz,

Thanks

Hey, Don...where's our manners?

Glad you've joined us...but I get a feeling through Prater you've been keeping an eye on us?

Best,

Duff :scratchead:

This WH must have been stored good because after the bath there was very little rust. Did not even need to be tore down any further so some spot rust cleanup, primer and some new paint. I just ran short on the Regal Red...

Go Daddy Don, You are a progress making machine. Thought it might clean up nicely. Man at this rate you are going to be done in like 2 more days. :scratchead:

[Prater 75]

Dad is cleaning up a few parts and doing some paint work.

I like the idea of power washing. Looks like it does a nice job. Looks like it will be sweet when done. Good luck.

[Prater 75]

Stoped by the house today to raid dad's fridge...took a couple shots of the WH while I was there...

Getting ready for new wheel seals

[bell 11]

Restoring these things is good for the soul! :notworthy:
