nylyon-(Admin) 7,880 #1 Posted May 21, 2008 Thought I would start a new thread. I still haven't painted the wheels, and to make it a little nicer, I added some Hub Caps. The decals went on this morning and I think that it is coming along quite nicely. Stephen, these hubcaps are not staying on it, they belong to the 416-H. Too bad the hub caps are so expensive. Well, here it is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim_M 179 #6 Posted May 21, 2008 Karl, That's one fine looking C-160! It's giving me the incentive to get back to work on 1 or 2 of my projects. Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nylyon-(Admin) 7,880 #8 Posted May 21, 2008 And finally.... Like Father, Like Son Guys, you have no idea what these 2 pictures mean to me (Thank You!) Yes, I know the 416 is filthy, that's why it isn't shining. There will be another (later) with everyting nice and clean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MaineDad 87 #15 Posted May 21, 2008 WOW What a job you have done! Which one do you like riding better? :whistle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,880 #16 Posted May 21, 2008 It's a toss up on which one I like driving more. I really like the C-160's directional control, but the 416-H has a far better ride and better suspended seat. The 416's Onan is, in my opinion, a much smoother and quieter engine. But I totally enjoy driving the C-160, it is a fine machine (good looking too!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

linen beige 15 #18 Posted May 21, 2008 I'm also speechless. That C just looks fantastic and I also like the shot of the two generations together. Awesome. With the WHCC show coming up, that I won't be able to attend, (I'd love to meet some of you guys) there is a great opportunity to take a few shots of several generations posed together. From the ponds to the classics. And if Mr. Pond was in a shot, it would be priceless. And I would pick this C to represent it's group, if the wheels get done in time.

TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #19 Posted May 21, 2008 Karl, your C-160 is AWESOME ! ! ! ! ! (ummmm...... do you need me to send you up some air for the right front tire on the 416? I have some here I'm not using. ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,880 #20 Posted May 21, 2008 You noticed that tire huh? It has air in it now, and will be getting a tube this weekend. After I replaced it last year, it held air fine until this year. There's a brand new tube on the shelf waiting to be installed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KyBlue 655 #22 Posted May 21, 2008 TT, your too much! Jim ya wanna carpool to the PA show? haha Karl - Those are some great pictures - the decals and all look awesome - Hubcaps do too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpinnc 14,585 #23 Posted May 22, 2008 Yes, I know the 416 is filthy, that's why it isn't shining. There will be another (later) with everyting nice and clean. Yeah Karl, that 416 is really taking away from the pic.... And I've got some waterfront property for sale cheap! Both of those machines look great! Of course, knowing the story behind the C-160 (along with the AMAZING paintjob) does make it stand out a bit... I think it's awesome you got the model you've been looking for!

Rollerman 290 #24 Posted May 22, 2008 Karl thats a nice looking set of Horses you have there! The hup caps really do look nice on there...& I have to agree with you on the price of them.
