Bertie 314 #1 Posted August 13, 2017 As my C121 has had an engine change as discussed in previous posts I was contacted today and given the opportunity to look at an unmolested C161 with the original Kohler 16hp in place, It's been locked away for years but I'm taking a look this week and knowing me I'll buy it anyway...😉 3 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 9,468 #5 Posted August 14, 2017 The C-161 is probably one of my favorite tractors, which explains why I have all three. C-161 automatic, 8 speed and twin automatic!!! We definitely need pics of it. Do you know which one it is? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I currently have a C-160, 312-8, and just picked up a 520H last weekend. In the past I have owned a 100 hr. 520, a 461H, and a couple other horses. If fuel is not a concern, do yourself a favor, find a good 520H. They are light years above the rest. Sure, the 312-8 is great for economy and smaller places, but a 520H rocks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
