I'll let you take mine for a ride Brian

Just went out and got this one 20 mins down the road. Need some help with this one, I have no idea what it is. All I know is it's a

Had some seat time today, great to work my horse again! Love the 48" plow!!

You guys need to work on the Horses more and get more petroleum products on you. No kidding, where I have oil or something petroleum on my hands about up to my elbows several days a week it takes care of it and those areas heal 10 times faster. Hence Neosporin - 25% petroleum products... From my hands to elbows are no problem, the rest is. I tried something someone told me about a few years back for the extreme cold and it helps with dryness as well. After you get done with a shower take a damp washrag and knock off most of the water but not all, immediately cover yourself in lotion, it locks in the moisture. I would have never believed it would make you feel much warmer and help with dryness but it does, you will tell it as soon as you step out of the shower. I only do it when it get's really cold, Sandra does it every day all Winter. Can't hurt to try.

Geno, that back rest is an add on option...they are worth a little bit of money too. The belt guard would of been cut up because of the motor swap, if you wanted to put a correct looking guard on it you would probably have to modify one. Also, here's a couple pictures of my 63 so you know what original is...however yours has a couple differences like the steering wheel, and column by the shifter

Why did I just sit here and watch the full 2:21 of that?

Only once Mike??? Here hold my beer and watch this. John, I told you Iowa was a 7-5 team...everybody knows it. Save me a piece of Caesar's Pizza...actually save me 2 pieces...MaMa needs new soles on her shoes. Hope you are not playing NIU!! Pizza Pizza... :) :)

I looked, and the sideplate bolts are 3/4" so maybe they are hitting on a gear making it not turn over. Also, found a couple of the bearings were sticking up just a little bit, but not much. I don't think it is in the axle bushings as they are kind of worn around there. Will probably try another assemble tonight with shorter bolts....and no silicone. lol

I went after some parts for my GT14 a few days ago and came home with this pretty straight C165 8 speed minus engine. I have a S7D cast iron recoil start 7 hp Wisconsin that I have been looking for a tractor to use it on. I think I will put it on this C165 for now.

Once again , kudos to the staff ! LOOKS GREAT !

Round fender lawn ranger ..... Issues for sure

I plan on being there Geno.

Looks real nice. Planning on painting all of the shop tools? If so, someone has too much time on their hands! I see some shelving in the back ground that needs to be red!

sounds like a good project when do you think you'll have it done Glenn

Hey Mike, your planning on eating donuts with Jim aren't you? You got lucky last week especially after you said Wisconsin could stay home and not play, and win. This week you say that Nebraska can stay home. Here's hoping that pick comes back and bites you right in the _ _ _!!! As always, Go Hawkeyes!!!!

Im going to have to go with a b-80 mostly due to the fact the motor is not overkill and for me has all the power for mowing and plowing that i would need.

My vote is for the 1976/1977 B/C Series (B-80, B-100, C-120, C-160), 8-Speeds. I think they were the best looking, and overall toughest machines made.

As some as you may know. I had a little Medical issue a week and a half ago. With winter approaching I knew it would be a challenge to get tractors ready for winter. Craig (AMC Rules) offered to come over and give me a hand. And when he found out I was looking for an older tractor to plow snow at work he offered me his 1267 at a great price. He drove the 5 HOURS ONE WAY! today. I needed a plow for it and Brian (buckrancher) had one and after driving from CT. and back yesterday he brought it up this morning. Both the tractor and plow needed some love and good old fashioned thrashing to make everything work. We filled all the tires with RV antifreeze but 1 of Craig's tires he wanted filled going to need a tube so out the fluid came. Stevasaurus called in on Skype and brought Jim D. along. We had a mini M & G going with a ton of laughs. We even got the plow on the tractor!!! Wife made chili and brownies and we let Steve and Jim know what they were missing. I can't thank Craig and Brian enough for all the help and Steve and Jim for the back row heckling. Here are some pics. I even got Craig on Elvis! I called it Sqonk Fest instead of Squonk Fest because SOMEONE has trouble with the letter U!

I would have to go with the 78-79 "C" series. They were a mix of the earlier C's and set the foundation for modern tractor all the way up until the end of the run of Wheel Horse's, They were the what you would call the bread and butter or Back Bone for Wheel Horse.

Hands down... 1976 or 77 C-160 Auto. 2nd choice... Bronco 14 circa 1972 73

Whats your email address Geno? Never mind. Here it is. Radio_8-6911.pdf

Well, all I know is when you two get done kicking up dust in King Solomon's Temple you might want to stumble outta there and get your picks in. There's a Friday deadline this week don't forget.

This is something you really need to think about... I know you have a young family and I thought I heard you might be looking to buy a new house. If you should run into a pinch for cash it may be hard to even break even. I have thought long and hard about buying this tractor myself over the past few yrs. (believe it or not I could come up with the cash to buy it) but when I ask myself would I be able to sell it and at least break even if I had to... That is a tough call... I know if I got it I wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of lightin up a big fat cigar and firing that bad boy up and ridin it at the BIG SHOW, but then there goes the value.. Would you be able to resist the temptation of ridin it? I'm just trying to give you another angle to look at.. if you do get it I'll give you 100 bucks if I can take it for one lap around the infield....

I've had this Cub for years and never really did much with it other than drive the kids around. A few weeks ago I decided it needed a new look. Aside from the new rims and tires, I modified an aftermarket front drop axle to rake the nose 2.5 inches. I added the front plate under the grill to give it a smoother look too. The skinnier front rims are from a 49 Baird Beaver.

E-BAY link deleted. Wisconsin engine RS-83 Sr. I'm going to start posting anything I think someone here would be interested in Just quick posts with links to items relevant to W/H and the RS as I go through my searches

Below are the top speeds on some of the C's and 520's. All have Eaton 1100 Hydros. In general, newer is slower These numbers are from the sales brochures: 1984 C-145 top speed 7.1 1984 C-175 top speed 7.1 1984 C-195 top speed 6.6 1988 520HC top speed 7.5 1988 520H top speed 6.4 1994 520H top speed 5.6 1995 520H top speed 5.6 The top speed on the 1980 C's and D's with the Sundstrand Hydros was 6.3. Except for the D Series which continued with the Sundstrand Hydros, 1980 was the last year of the Sundstrand Hydros for the other models and in 1980 there was a mix of Sundstand and Eaton Hydros.

Bag balm or wool fat for me !!

I use utter balm

So............ Come on Sandra, ya gotta do it!!

jimT1971 has one of them only his is a custom ride with a 8 speed and the larger early sixties round hood fenders

Page 5 of this manual shows the set screws on the outside. Installation is described because the pulley is not on it when new. Garry

Have you counted the days and hours yet?

Hey John! I wanted to make sure I got you riled up at least once this year!

520 drag races!

But wouldn't a 520h from 89 be geared the same as a 97, unless it was a 520hc? No feathers ruffled just trying to get things straight.

Thanks all for the input....I am going to check and see if it the bearings are sitting flush, then I think i will try to bolt it together without the diff.

I like it Geno. Love those colors.

Best all around round hood IMHO is the 854. I'm not sayin it's the rarest but the best all around.. Then I'd have to say the C-series... The hood's on the black hood C-125's thru 175's were solid, they closed nicely and didn't rattle...

SOOOOO, where are the PICS of it, at it's new HOME!!!! Rob

75 C-120 auto, I use at the farm. It snowed about 4 inches. Better than 5 feet!

I guess I was ewxpecting it to be nice and shiney. When I go over it with sand paper it cleans up and gets a good shine on it.

It's suppose to mount directly to the hood with no brackets

You have a 1966-67 snowthrower on a much later model tractor with a front quick hitch and there is no application charts for that combination. The correct snowthrower uses a 5/8" x 69" belt. Perhaps someone can measure the distance between the center of the pto and the center of the snowthrower shaft for a comparison to your measurement . The 69" belt minus 2x the difference should be close to what you need. Garry

Was out going... and in coming today.

If I strike a deal (selling) I set a time when they are coming. If they are going to be late they better call. If they are a no- show I move on to the next. I would've dream of selling something out from under someone after a deal is made just because they can get there faster or offer more money. If I'm buying I always call first to at least let the seller know I'm on my way

...and here's the star of today's show... ...the Skunk himself, just waiting for a snow flake.

I can't figure out how to get my Skype shots into my computer so I can show you guys. ...but thanks for the nice day and I will figure it out.

Thanks, I'm just getting to the stage of needing them! Plus enter SAVE10 and you get a discount . . . free shipping too

I was just looking at the Commando 8 in the shed Thursday with my 10 year old grandson. He says it's not too bad, and that we should be able to fix it up the next time he comes to spend the night. Really! I guess these kids today know everything. Although, as slow as my leg is taking to heal, I just might have the Commando done before the leg.

One of my black hoods with a bad azz black engine under it. This one has 278 hours on it. It lives in a storage box because I have other black hood workers. One of my black hood workers with a grey Series II replacement engine waiting for a black flywheel cover.
