Amcwheel85 2,058 #1 Posted March 24, 2017 Well guys I'm buying a tractor off a guy and I had to buy this C-175 also, but being it has no engine I really have no need for it, I wanted you guys to help me decide if I should sell it whole or part it out? I won't have them til next week.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varosd 1,185 #2 Posted March 24, 2017 would be easy (maybe) to slap a HF or Briggs or Honda twin cylinder in there and go. is the Eaton good? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amcwheel85 2,058 #3 Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Idk that until I get it next week. He did say only reason it's apart As motor threw a rod Edited March 24, 2017 by Amcwheel85 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 24,033 #4 Posted March 24, 2017 Partial to Black Hoods, so my vote goes with @varosd. If it rolls good, put an engine in it and use it... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amcwheel85 2,058 #5 Posted March 24, 2017 I love black hoods too but money is getting tight and space is getting smaller lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackC 616 #6 Posted March 24, 2017 Looks decent. The C-175 is a beast. What other tractor are you buying? Maybe transplant the engine from the other one into the C-175 Automatic and get rid of the other one? I personally would keep it and eventually put a used Kohler single or twin in it. If i were selling it I would sell it whole. If you need money and have the space and the time to monkey around part it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amcwheel85 2,058 #9 Posted March 25, 2017 Well if I don't part it I will prolly need to get $100 for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,940 #10 Posted March 25, 2017 Can't remember now... but, that might be one of those "faster" hydro rears you were asking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackC 616 #11 Posted March 25, 2017 It would be a steal for $100. I have seen just the hoods go for about $75. The seat looks original and depending on condition could go for $50 to $100. The hydro fan sitting on the foot rest $15. The plastic fender looks like it has a crack that could be repaired. A plastic fender in one piece is hard to find. Maybe put it in the classifieds and ask for $250 or BO? Might be worth $200 to a black hood fan. Almost any single or twin Kohler could go into it. With 16 or more ponies it would be a beast. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amcwheel85 2,058 #12 Posted March 26, 2017 Well I'm not out to make a living just make my money back. I may put it on Craigslist for $200 obo but would take $100 from any member on here or would part out if enough ppl wanted parts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
