Forest Road 594 #3 Posted May 7, 2011 A running 160? I'd gladly take it if you don't want it. The 16hp Kohlers are the toughest to come by. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 38,902 #7 Posted May 7, 2011 Big question...Auto or 8-Speed? Good Question. There is a C-160 "Bad Hydro" epidemic going around here at Red Square :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smoreau 658 #8 Posted May 7, 2011 Big question...Auto or 8-Speed? Good Question. There is a C-160 "Bad Hydro" epidemic going around here at Red Square I hope not! the one I got from Kelly 2 weeks ago works GREAT! added a hyd. lift and it runs like a dream! but for $50 I wouldn't hesitate a second. the parts are worth 3 times that price and a running k341, thats worth 150-300. so what are you waiting for? BRING IT HOME!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #15 Posted May 8, 2011 Why are you even asking? I just don't understand! YIKES!!! Can you give us the location of this C160? Actually, I really think this is a Dumb question. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuckyJohn 0 #16 Posted May 8, 2011 Serious you are asking the most intense WH collectors on the planet if paying $50 for a C-160 is a good deal or if you should buy it? YES get it, if I could find that type of deal I would in a heart beat and even if I didn't have a use for it I would store it until I did. But I guess having a 36X60 pole barn to store my toys in has gotten me a little spoiled. I always try to find those deals. Never turn a good deal, but be aware of one that looks to good.
