Lugnut 0 #1 Posted September 19, 2011 I just picked up a 1974 C-162. I've never seen a tractor with decals that designated the 162. Did they just receive the C-160 decals since it's the same tractor only with a different brand engine? Or maybe the C-162 had no decal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 19,660 #3 Posted September 19, 2011 There was never a C-162. Wheel Horse made a "16"(auto or 8 speed) a C-160 and a C161 and a C165. Its probably one of those tractors. Can you post the model#? Mike......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marvairplanes 34 #5 Posted September 19, 2011 Ahh Sparky... 1974, one year only...Wheel Horse produced the only C series tractor with a Tecumseh engine ! It is called the C-162...an 8-Speed with engine HH160-170019. I have one in my collection. I can post a photo, but as stated in the first post, it has decals like the C-160.

rmaynard 14,934 #7 Posted September 19, 2011 It still says C-160 on the side, and the ID 1-0385 is designated by Toro as a 1974 C-160 8-Speed. Where does the C-162 come from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #8 Posted September 19, 2011 Where does the C-162 come from? Right HERE. All of my real books list it as a C-160 too (just like the Kohler-powered 1-0380 C-160) so perhaps that's where the confusion comes from. There were also a few Tecumseh-powered C-120 models.

C-Series14 15 #9 Posted September 19, 2011 There was also a C-120 with the Tech in 1974 and 1975... TT beat me to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 14,934 #10 Posted September 20, 2011 Right HERE. So is that an official Wheel Horse or Toro document, or a compilation by someone else? Is the "C-162" mentioned anywhere in "Straight From The Horse's Mouth"? Inquiring minds need to know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 19,660 #11 Posted September 20, 2011 Hmmm....didnt know anything about a C-162. I thought the Tec powered tractors recieved the "Special" designation on the decal. Learn something everyday . Mike......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike......... Model # is 10385 9, I also got a tiller model # 7 1251 9. Anyone know where I can get a manual for the tiller? The tractor is just like Marvs.. thanks for the pics Marv. Maybe the confusion is the word "too." The guy I got the tractor from told me the only difference between the 160 and the 162 was the engine brand. Don't have pics yet, I left the camera at the office but I'll get some up soon. Thanks for the help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
