jackhammer 550 #1 Posted October 4, 2013 (edited) Friend told me about a horse sitting at abandoned house. I went and looked . Bad shape Number on it was 1 096 4 . I looked thru Toro consumer . Can anyone shed some light on what type of horse this is ?? did notice the hydraulic hoses were mounted on the left outside above the foot panel , they were not covered by a guard and seemed stouter than the 175/165 and the 417 that is in the garage. Lever for seat and it folded to the rear Had a cable that came out by the hydro in back and a smalller lift deally of some kind Forgot to list the 16hp kohler Edited October 4, 2013 by jackhammer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,299 #2 Posted October 4, 2013 (edited) Why don't you go back and take a couple of pictures and re-check that ID number. When you say "lever for seat" does that mean that the whole seat/fender pan opens to the rear? The only 16hp Kohler with automatic and a flip seat pan were the 73 Auto, ID 1-0440; the 1974 C-160, ID 1-0480; and the 1975 C-160, ID 1-0481, all of which had hydro hoses that were uncovered above the foot rests.

jackhammer 550 #5 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) You're right rmaynard and jwkw07 even without a pic you had it figured. Here's what the correct new numbers show according to wheel horse all years list I have. tractor number and serial 1 0480 9 1011485 kohler k 341s 71128a Little difference on that wheel horse all years list shows tractor 1974 shows kohler engine 1975 looks like more work than I am capable of doing thanks fella's for the quick responses - My phone does not take pics so I had to wait till my son came over Sunday morn. Darn - Bears lost again!! Edited October 7, 2013 by jackhammer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SousaKerry 503 #6 Posted October 7, 2013 looks like more work than I am capable of doing If you can make a deal with the owner pull it out and flip it like it is, Someone here will surely take it on. Don't let it get made into Chinese bolts and nails. If anything the parts on it will help someone else keep theirs going strong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwkw07 0 #7 Posted October 7, 2013 Where's it located? If you don't want it let me know.... I would love to have a c160 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't let it get made into Chinese bolts and nails. If anything the parts on it will help someone else keep theirs going strong. I wasn't going to try a restore but could've used a few parts myself. I don't what to get my hopes up but I've been there four times counting yesterday, haven't seen a soul. I went to ask all the neighbors and I talked to the local police to ask a few questions. Info passed, a friend of a friend - you know the story and finally contacted owner this morning. Much to my demise and looks like some other members, owner is going to load up and try to get'r going. Left my name and tele just in case. So this hasn't been a big bust. At least he knows I'm interested. Thanks all for chiming in. Thanks, jackhammer Rick Edited October 8, 2013 by jackhammer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
