Rear Fender Pan installed -ready to mow !!!

Got to work on the C-100 8 speed  over the weekend...Only real rust was on the rear fender pan. Luckily the previous owner sent a replacement along with the purchase. 

 

Changed it over Sunday and 5b0c981432006_tractor3.jpg.0e3036a97f50ea0de95ccb075b09dc86.jpg5b0c9809157ef_tractor2.jpg.7ffbcd39c9bd988a445178cc348a8a24.jpg,moved the seat back two inches and now I fit. I was surprised at just how bad the rear pan was with no rust anywhere else. I was about to toss the old pan but thought I should post pics and see if anyone needs one. Needs about a 8 x 10 patch welded in.  Not  needed by me as I had the spare but I have no idea of these are plentiful or not. If someone needs it it's free for the cost of shipping. I'll hang on to it for a few weeks and see if there is any need for it.

 

Then I mowed with the Wheelhorse for the first time this afternoon... Wow what a great little machine. I'm used to my  Bolens XL16 that overpowers the lawn... the Wheelhorse requires active participation and finesses the win... what a great little tractor. I have to tip my hat to the PO I charged the battery and turned the key and off we went.... all greased up , everthing already adjusted, fluids good , new paint and it would look new....maybe over the winter. then again something to be said for 5b0c97fc66083_tractor1.jpg.388a94d7b9d6a9db6475c4c156eabd1b.jpghonest patina.

 

Nest week I hope to fire up the Hydro C-100 and see how that works.....

 

Great Forum here and glad it's available...

Seat pans are fairly easy to come by, I doubt you will find any takers for that rusted out one.

  Nice to see an old C series being put to use!

Very nice tractor, you may want to check the deck belt. Looks like is not in the correct grove

The one closer to the motor....gives you a higher blade speed.
