kudzu3 323 #2 Posted October 4, 2015 That's really nice Bert, appears to be original, I like the 857's. I know what you mean about bringing more home, I started with one about two years ago with no intentions of having more than that...I now have three, and don't know where it'll go from here. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,229 #4 Posted October 4, 2015 That looks excellent, and I think that everyone should have an 857 in their stable. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 36,945 #7 Posted October 4, 2015 When the original condition is that nice...how can you not bring them home? Good luck walking away from #10 Bert. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bert 760 #8 Posted October 4, 2015 When the original condition is that nice...how can you not bring them home? Good luck walking away from #10 Bert. The only way I go for #10 is if its got a magnum 18 or 20 under the hood 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheel-N-It 2,967 #11 Posted October 4, 2015 Very nice looking 857 Bert! I know what you mean about thinning down. I've sold three this year but then bought one yesterday LOLDon't rule out a KT-17 series 2. I think it's basically a magnum engine that uses old style points and condenser ignition instead of a magneto. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slammer302 2,154 #13 Posted October 4, 2015 I just got a C-175 with the kt17 and it is Cadillac of wheel horse if you ask me! I like the motion control lever better than the ones on the dash and the layout is nice plus they just look good 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aldon 4,826 #14 Posted October 4, 2015 I was up to 5 earlier this summer. Now down to 3. I am trying hard to make that the max. If I get ansty for another, I'll need to move one that I have. Self denial is however not my forte! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
