Hi. I'm new to the forums. I own a D160 with 48" snowblower, 48" mower deck, 52" tiller and lawn sprayer. Recently my wife decided to build me a snow cab. (Yes, you read it right - my wife) I thought I'd share a couple of pictures here. She made the frame out of wood, which makes it very light and easily installed using only 4 bolts.

I'll post a few I took. Some may be duplicates though.

A couple of mine here...

I purchased this WH aerator last weekend and just finished restoring it. I plan on using it on my yard next year.

Run the old girl empty, enjoy the seat time, and before you know it you'll be shooting fish in an empty bucket

All that stuff never happens in the Mid-West...it seems like it always happens out east. All of our kids are Campbells' kids....bright shinny faces and rosy cheeks...homework done...rooms cleaned...and asking, "do you need any help with anything Dad" ??

I will have a trailer load of WH's for sale at the Wapakenetta flea market, tractor show on Nov. 8th. My buddies are selling them for me, I won't be there in person. Some of the tractors for sale are, 603 Special, 500 Special, 857, 552 w/1962 snow plow, a 1966 snow thrower and maybe a snow blade or 2 also. I may have an old RJ 58 for sale too and possibly one other tractor, not sure what it will be yet. These tractors are in descent shape and most will need restoration or repairs. Anybody looking for this stuff, feel free to contact me or show up at the show. Thank You...KJ

"Spirit of 76" C-160, 73 12 8 speed "Ezra", 64 704 'Reddi" , 59 RJ "Redball Jet" and why not, 77 Power King "Elvis"

Here is a couple of my tractors, My gt14 Senior with our little overnight camper RJ 35 being guarded by my little west highland terroir Skye , who is blind Raider 10 being driven by grand daughters

I agree, home would be nice, especially since that stupid tomahawk chant wouldn't be as loud. We get so tired of that. It should be a great game as long as the turnovers that have plagued the Irish lately come to an end. The weather is going to be absolutely perfect so that can't be used as an excuse. GO IRISH!!!!!!!!

And I'm betting all the time the kids were adding oil & pull stating ,the other hand was texing all their little buddies on suggestions on how to fix it. HERE'S YOUR SIGN...

Remember the BIG GAME this week is ND vs. FSU!!!!! GO IRISH!!!! Only 5 teams left undefeated and this one has the makings of being a true fight to the finish! To bad this game is not beig played as a home game for the Irish. Something to ponder... If Ol Miss and Mississippit State win out the rest of the season, they potentially could be 1-2 ranked and still have no loses. They would then play each other again in the play-offs or possibly, dependig on how the play-offs are structured, they could see each other in the Championship game....... Rob

An people always say, "Boys will be boys", but I was totally afraid of my dad and was to scared to pull a stunt like that!

Yup, I guess it won't be you two!!!! Lol!!!! Dream on, Dreamers!!!!

I found this one just over the Hudson river in NY. I am the 3rd owner of this the first was 90 when he sold it with a tear in his eye. So I was told. I took it down to the frame cleaned and buffed it out it is what u see today. Oh the deck is just as nice. Enjoy the Ride and taking pride in what u ride. Gary. this was benefit car show last year at work. A 657 that under a porch and forgotten for 25 years all cleaned up. this was my second 1057 that had I hated to sell it. the engine was rock solid but not a looker.

Here are my two a B80 and 418A (the 418 is waiting on a few more engine parts)

My mini stable of 3 horses...854... 416-8...522xi Glenn

Only two for me, an 854, I restored 2 years ago, and an RJ 58. Just got it this summer and am beginning a restore on it. I also have a snow plow for the 854 and small dump cart.

I opened up the carb from the Commando 8 engine today and found this in it. Man, this stuff gets around..

Can't imagine flying nowadays...let alone a cruise ship.

Dittos on that. If one more case unrelated to the Duncan one shows up, I don't think the government will have any other choice but to put a ban on travel from West Africa. I'm flying to Orlando on Monday and you better believe that I am more than just a tad concerned.

I've thought of doing this too....but it might consist of only me out in my shed drinking beer and talking to myself...so, basically I have a meet and greet almost every night

What better day than today to spend some QT with my dad making some new wheel weights. Better add a pic of us [emoji2]

Just started mocking this up tonight. This hood is very straight and rust free, unfortunately has a horrible primer job on it that will need to be removed. The stickers were taped off before primer thus the C-125 sticker showing through. The hood will be set just a bit more forward (2-3 inches i think) once I get the C series brackets bolted on and aligned. Should put that onan nice and centered in the opening.

1989 312-8 With 451 hrs !

Had some good shop time today and got a lot done. Should I say I am almost finished. Tomorrow The only thing left to do is put the seat on and finish hooking up the lights. Have to get some male plug in inserts to finish the lights. I am very pleased with the way this turned out and really proud of the work I did. Nu first restore and it looks like a winner to me. Still have some decals to add. Will do that tomorrow also then take a tour of the neighborhood. If you look in the background of some of the photos, you can see the new Deestones for the rear . I need to paint the wheels and let them sit for a while before I install them.

MY GT-1800 WORK HORSE CAME FROM THE FACTORY IN BLACK. IT WAS $40.00 EXTRA. RUSS

Go to your favorite hardware store. Get one of those Kerosene siphon pumps and one of those claw pick up tools. Pump out the gas and grab the cap

Oh well, I just went out to look for the serial numbers, but the sun went down, and using a flashlight I can not find the darn things.. I read where the serial # is located on the right (front) section of the frame. I don't see it.., Thanks Kudzu3 ... I will post them as soon as I can find them (and see...its to dark for me to be climbing around the things right now. Thanks for helping though.

Never thought of a Fez-Ant! Thanks Jim

Why Glenn that's awefully kind of you ole bean ,one tries spiffingly hard to present ones favourite tractors to you all.

Hey Neil..A English reply for you. " jolly good show ol chap" That's great....... Glenn

I deal with a bunch of these beauties everyday. The kitchen staff where I work is full of them. The dishroom looks like an Animal House food fight took place every day. I'm the first call to repair all of the equipment. Yesterday 1 doofus was screwing around and knocked the emergency gas shutoff button and electrical box clean off the hood with his head. Last week they knocked. a $2000 conveyor toaster on the floor. I tell everyone that I could put a solid block of Iron in the kitchen and in an hour it will be broken

Just remember you get what you pay for, on another tractor site a guy bought the cheaper tires and compared them to a set of another brand and went off on a rant thinking he was ripped off, because the two sets of tires were marked the same size on the side walls but in reality were not even close, the Deestones are good tires I have a few sets, but size wise are smaller, than say a Goodyear or Carlisle, so keep that in mind when buying tires, there is no standard for garden tractor tires, and you truly do get what you pay for.

One thing for sure Michigan can't loose this week..... MINNESOTA ~ IOWA ~ RUTGERS ~ MICHIGAN ST ~ NORTHWESTERN GO HAWKeYe's

2 week old Lil Debbies will be available in the basement this week as well.

Thanks Craig you have nice heard your self. But running out of room like most do. As always the eye get us in trouble all the time. enjoy. Hope to finally meet in the spring. have good winter. Gary.

I keep hearing talk... about how these things will do such a great job.

Yeah...love all those ol' sevens Gary.

Now this I Like! Want to see the final outcome. I just can't find it in me to accept the hoods on the later series.

Well Steve I guess that means I can't gain ground on you as well and it also means there 2 guys who picked 5 games right this week....lol

From what I've seen on here, any Wheel Horse in Florida is rare and $400 for a 520H is a bargain anywhere. There are more money parts on a 520 than almost any other W/H.

If you run jumper straight to the started from the battery pos to pos. neg to motor and the starter still doesn't spin and motor is not locked its a bad starter

I bought mine from Classic Kitchens. http://www.classickitchensandmore.com/wheel-horse-34520-lawn-tractor-24in-full-size-foot-board-mats-p-1270.html About $30.00. They are an exact fit with all holes for the hardware pre-cut. I have laid them out and they look great. I just want to make sure that I use the right product to install them. They have other designs to fit other models of Wheel Horse. I like these because thy cover most of the floor boards like the original on my 417-A

Check for a set screw on that brake drum. Using a puller would be fine if you can get the jaws behind the drum. There's not much room.

Air tools, elbow grease, time, rustoleum rusty metal primer and paint (regal red). New tires as well.
