New guy in Washington State

Hi, First off, thank you for all the great info here! I found this place looking for manuals online and have been here nearly nonstop since.  
These things are addictive! I inherited my fathers C105, next thing I knew I had a 68 raider 12, and a 77 C160 follow me home.  

I'm a retired Navy guy that liked it out here in Washinton, so I stayed. But I am envious of you folks back east when I look in the classifieds,
these things are scarce out here.

I just did a quick refresh on the 160, thanks to the help on here. Here is a few pics from before and after.  It will be a worker, and I still need to do the deck.  It also has a tiller and a blade.

Thanks again, Paints dry so it was time to put the weights and blade on it and try a little light yard work. After I figured out I needed to change the position of the springs in the blade (after pic), and lower the air in the rear tires it did ok.   Not crazy about these deestone rear tires, there supposed to be 10.50s but are tiny. My local hardware store's flyer has rv anti freeze on sale so I believe they are getting filled......   I ordered up some of Miller's 23-10.50 Firestones for my C105, I hope they bite a bit better.
