Ten horse collection

[jaydeer 14]

I was talking (listening) to my wife who suggested I reduce my collection to ten wheel horses. SO I thought why not ask what you would pick for your top ten. Here is mine for starters.

1. C195 - Great tractor for any work, especially mowing big yards

2. 520 - Another great mower

3. GT-14 - A small tank of a machine.

4. 1054 - GT-14 on a diet

5. c160 - big power in a c-series

6. 1045- Neat, some power and rare

7. Indy 500 - Same as above

8. 1277 - my pick d/t hydro and need a long frame

9. 603 - Neat machine

10. 1075 - Looks great with the engine compartment stuffed

Sorry no RJ, just not a big fan of the smaller round hoods.

Just another topic to waste time on waiting for the next PA snowfall to remove.

[WheelHorse_of_course 99]

John, Are you sure you were "Listining" to your wife?

She said 10 tractors!

That puts you at 10, C195's if my math is right!

Or did she mean "10 each" of your top 10 favoriets?

[Don1977 605]

I just have one but in the last 33 years it's been a C-120, C-160, and now it's a C-180.

If I have it long enough it may become a C-200 or a C-230. Anything bigger I'll have to cut the hood like Kelly's Rat Rod. I do have one of those off brand Green ones in a farm tractor. I wonder what I could fit into a C-195 with a few hood modifications. Like a 4" hood lift and a hole for one of those commercial breathers. I would have 10 modified C-Series if I had 10 Wheel Horses.

[refracman 167]

Neat topic, this could go for awile

I to am not a big fan of the roundies but they are nice for puttin at the shows

The ones I have and use regular like so they be goin nowhere

1. 417xt main grass cutter

2. 82 C195 3pt FEL

3. C160

4. GT14 3pt FEL

ones I have to have and probably wont sell

5.84 C195 3pt

6. 46 pond

7. C105 ( near NOS)

wish list

8. 55 pond

9. 400

10. 420LSE

guess I need to get rid of the other ones that just sit :ychain:

[zieg72 209]

Fun question, since I have only 3 I get to buy 7 more....

Well since I use mine for working I would probably have 1 or 2 as parade tractors, I would have to hunt or make a 502 dually like bell sold and restore it like a shiny penny. I would have to find a 1986 420SLE in mint condition, that leaves 5 more. Next I would have to get a C-195 with the 3 point and FEL. I would also obtain a 520-8 and put a gear reduction steering/forward swept axle on it. 2 more 520H's to share the work load so I could have 1 dedicated winter worker with the winter cab hooked to a 2 stage blower, the other could plow in the winter/til in the spring and leave my current 520H for lawn duty. Definitely import a 512 just because...

Maybe I will make a list for Santa and see how far that gets me :ychain:

[Operator 7]

The wife says "you don't need that many" but I would like - -

1. D-200 three point and rear pto Got this one! Silly me

2. 520H 60" deck Have this tooo!

3. C-195 1984 model three point rear pto -

4. C-160 8 spd

That is all I "need". I'd be happy.

I'd still have my extra's too.
