New Horse came home to the stable

Recommended Posts

Teddy da Bear

I just bought my 6th horse.

It is a 1974 C-120 Auto. New belts and spindles.

These two "guys" (that lived together) did not know what they had.

It runs and mows. But has quite a few minor problems.

Worst thing is the deck....is is rotted out and the height

adjustment is broken off. But they had the forsight to

keep the peices with it.

I hope I can get started on it some time this next week.

The best deal I will likely make....... Got it for $75!

Hey,

Nice job bringing home another horse. Or should I say, "saving" it. Not gonna say much about 2 "guys" with a horse. :whistle:

ANYWAYS............

We , of course, want to see some pics!

Number 6? Are you married? just asking cuz, if I brought number 6 home, I'd be sleeping with all six in the garage!

Nice job for 75 bucks too!

Mailman you just don't have her trained right yet :whistle: I have 15 verts now and no major flack from the wife........lately. Course she thinks I'm still on 5 so next weekend when the whole herd makes the treck from OH to IN to their new stable may be interesting. She's scheduled to work on moving day though so we just have to get them all tucked away in their stalls before she can get an accurate count :WRS: :D

Yes I am married... Married an Amish woman! She totally understands about the tractors.....she doesn't understand about the engine though (just kidding honey).

Hey! Do you think it was just like Broke Back Mountain???

I have a couple of developing problems though......

Since working on the tractor I bought from the "two guys" I seemed to have developed a "lisp" and started wearing frilley clothes! :WRS:

Do you think it is the tractor? It was painted an awfully bright red!

Nahhhhh......never blame the tractor. :whistle:

I will get a picture on for you soon as possible.

And by the way.... One "guy" claimed to be an auto mechanic.

When I took the deck off I found one of the blades had been put on upside down! :imstupid:

Part one; :dunno::D:):D:D:WRS:

Part two; I so do hope you are talking about the tractor, this IS a family forum. :D

Part three; Have you not before seen the rare super seeded part # 6969 "spooning" blades? :D Or you know he'll claim it was nature that made him flip one end for end. :whistle:

Ok guys,

Picture is up in the gallery...

Could some admin delete the first post with the "6 speed", I did not notice the error until it was too late.

Mike,

It doesn't look too bad - it's not hideous. Looks like a keeper to me. :whistle:

Probably also didn't know what they weren't getting. :whistle:
