Bigfish 146 #1 Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Good morning, I want to thank everyone on the forum for all the great resources and the personal knowledge shared on this forum. It has helped me greatly over the years. I have been referencing this forum since I was bit by the wheel horse bug several years ago. My little habbit has since grown and its high time I stand up and say. "Hi, my name is Marlin, and im a Wheel Worse-aholic". Lol My current project is my storm damaged 74 C-160 8 speed. Part of a big maple fell and crushed the hood and dash tower. I have been searching for another C series to part out localy without success. So my question to you knowledgeable folks is: What other models share the same sheetmetal and has anyone done a parts interchangability list?

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,534 #2 Posted July 7, 2016 Welcome to the group. Any C series except the black hoods would work and some B series. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jerry77 1,218 #9 Posted July 7, 2016 Bigfish - don't know if this will help or not, but I was browsing thru ebay wheel horse stuff and saw these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/WHEEL-HORSE-C-120-DASH-TOWER-/262494089472?hash=item3d1dddf100:g:1r0AAOSwEetV9Ndp http://www.ebay.com/itm/WHEEL-HORSE-C-120-STEERING-SHAFT-AND-DASH-HOUSING-/252434392732?hash=item3ac643269c:g:GiwAAOSwiLdV9NBF good luck with your project... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bigfish 146 #12 Posted July 8, 2016 Thanks for the warm welcome. It sucks that the tree hit it, but on the flip side im getting a new 32x24 pole barn to replace the 12x21 shed I had. I kind of wish the charger 12 or 312-8 was hit. I can find parts for those all over. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
