c-series don 8,650 #2326 Posted August 20, 2023 My old grill was staining my patio with rust, it worked fine but the lower cabinet was rusting. So out with the old and in with the new! Used my C-141 8-speed to carry the old one with a free/ it works sign on it, up to the paved road where it will be gone by lunchtime! 8 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,279 #2330 Posted August 20, 2023 Ok, my apologies for flooding this thread with pics of my B-80. She isn’t an exciting tractor to look at ! But she was elected to handle all my yard chores today so… Just put her and the trailer away, so this will be the last two pics for this weekend 5 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 8,650 #2340 Posted August 22, 2023 Seeing @Sparkys 867 reminded me that I should get my Commando 8 out. Hasn’t been out in years! At the big show this year I bought a set of cultivators for it, even though I don’t have a garden!! I’m going to take them back off and paint them because they probably won’t see dirt for a while. I know, I know it has the wrong hood decals!! 6 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 8,650 #2342 Posted August 22, 2023 Another one that hasn’t seen the light of day in a while is my C-141 8 Speed with Sweepster Model 48 rotary broom. Fresh battery and some fresh gas and she fired right up! One day a few years ago I left it out on a windy day only to come back to the two side windows and the rear window all cracked, badly. I guess once one went it let in more air and the others couldn’t take it? I don’t know, but I do know that it was old and brittle so I removed what was left. Funny thing is that the windshield is still fine! 5 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I replaced mine with some marine clear vinyl and some thin strips of aluminum as a frame on the inside of the panels. They were more cloudy and getting brittle. I guess someone could sew them on but I'm a backyard hammer mechanic so.... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 8,650 #2348 Posted August 28, 2023 Not exactly a side shot but I guess it is close enough! The 418-C poised and ready to mow, but the 416-H wants in on the action. I ended up with using the 416 with the vacuum because it needed to be bagged. 4 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
