Sparky-(Admin) 23,902 #1 Posted October 4 At a local show today I scored this C-111 with a plow/weights/2 link chains for cheap $$$. No idea what my plan is. I really don’t need another plow here, sold off a couple plows this summer so I only have 5…and today I added another one back Into the mix 9 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rick 258 #9 Posted October 5 I have a C111 in my herd, too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MainelyWheelhorse 2,143 #10 Posted October 5 Nice score @Sparky. It would be a good base for a restoration as it looks in good shape. As for the plows what about taking the plow off and putting a rake etc… on the plow frame? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 6,098 #15 Posted October 6 (edited) My buddy texts me this morning and asks if I’m wrenching on the single mom Now that is funny right there. But i have to say Mike Nicley done. Did you find out what size the front tires are? They look on the large size. Edited October 6 by Retired Wrencher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just assumed they were standard 16-6.50’s but closer inspection shows they are 18-6.50’s. One of the wheels has a nice “dented edge” that’ll need some attention. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,776 #21 Posted October 10 Measure the diameter to get a match. The replacements may not have a diameter that matches the sidewall inscription. Some 18" tires now are 16" tall and the tubes available are still for 18" tall tires. Too big. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
