Wheel Horse D-160 Should I?

[T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,717]

As the title says, should I for $600?  I haven't even spoke to the seller, so I don't know anything about the condition.  But, I am intrigued.  If anyone else is intrigued, send me a message and if you're near Park Hills, Missouri, maybe it could be yours instead.  I'm just not sure if I'm that intrigued to go look at it.

That’s a beast

Survivor for sure, nice patina, original mufflers, etc. 

If you are into D machines I would say that is the one to get.

 

If you get it, do check the pump input coupler, mine spun the spline a couple years in. Those couplers are hard to come by.

That fan on the rear don’t look like it’s there for your cooling pleasure… I wonder if it’s a last ditch effort to keep that hydro motor working so-so.

The D 200 had those fans on the trans! (No Dr. Suess!)

I wanted to put one on my D-200 but it has the easy ride seat and you can't mount the fan.  I wound up using a small 12v box type fan

These are absolute beasts. We have 3 here and they will do just about anything
