WHEEL HORSE 312-8 52 #3 Posted January 12, 2015 Love the 200 grill did u make that?I want one 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jparkes43 329 #4 Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Love the 200 grill did u make that?I want one the front end looked like the flat black section like on those fronts of the other late tractors so i cut the hole out to match the shape of the bonnet with an angle and inserted a grille that i painted silver. but i agree it makes it looks so much better. james do you have another 200 series to do it to.? what other tractor do you have Edited January 12, 2015 by Jparkes43 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

motor12 367 #8 Posted January 12, 2015 Any round hood. The newer models have more of the muscular look, while the round hoods have the curves, and who doesn't like curves.... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wheelhorseman 3,199 #11 Posted January 12, 2015 My C-160 is my favorite - tractor exhaust stack, bar lugs on the back filled with rv antifreeze and wheel horse cast wheel weights front and back with my wheel horse mid mount grader blade. I love it! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The '85 416-8 is "his" dozing "buddy." The gray Horse is a work-in-progress. The Work Horse is now fitted with a blade, "It's snow time!"

Jake Kuhn 1,547 #20 Posted January 13, 2015 I like the mid engine tractors best, but if I had to choose a favorite in my collection currently it would be the 55 rj35 I just picked up. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chip61 655 #21 Posted January 13, 2015 I really like the C-series and the 300-400-500's. I have a 314-8 and a C160 auto and they are both great workers. The C160 was bought as a restoration project, but now that I've used it I'm not sure I want it out of commission that long. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Butch 194 #23 Posted January 13, 2015 I like my C-85. It mows and I use it for leveling with the midmount grader. I also use it to sweep and pull a wagon around. It by far gets the most use and it has great mpg! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jparkes43 329 #24 Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) My suburban is my favorite to mow with but for work I love my commando 8's Now i like it, is that a honda gx engine? i am so tempted for my ranger project because i think they are really nice engines. but how did you make the fuel tank work with the shape of the tractor because there is just a hole at the back of the bonnet. if i am right that is quite a small gx engine but with the rangers you can fit a larger gx engine and one from a go kart that has been tuned if you want james Edited January 13, 2015 by Jparkes43 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
