c-series don 11,871 #3278 Posted April 26 Took the 418-8 out today with 50” mid-mount grader blade to fix my neighbors driveway. It was really just an excuse to get a little seat time and make them happy at the same time. Forgot to take pictures during the job so I snapped a few when I got back home. 5 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MainelyWheelhorse 2,462 #3279 Posted April 26 (edited) It was in the 60’s so the group came out for a triple side shot. The 308 got salt cleaned out, the 312 did a test mow as the front yard needed it. I also took a ride on the C-141 too. I got some seat time on them all.

sqrlgtr 2,766 #3282 Posted May 2 Took the 520H I have been working on out for a walk about today. Really glad I rescued this ol girl a few more years setting around would have been rough on her. Must have set outside the last few years by the way the decals, paint and gauge faces where sun faded. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 20,405 #3285 Posted Monday at 06:03 PM A bit late.. all running...C-160-8 complete overhaul and now runs great thanks to stealing a carb from the other160-8 (next project tractor???) Commando eight also overhauled and ready to take over Trimming and other tight place mowing duties from another Commando.... That Command 8 runs well but you get a puff of smoke when she starts ...not sure if she will get overhauled or not... 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That doesn't bother me one single whisker. We've restored four of them to fresh paint and they all get worked. You send it right up to Maine and I'll babysit it for you. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm understanding this correctly there weights off a d series and are valued more ? Rarity the reasoning ? I still have a set from a 400 series I used to have but there plastic covered. With the wheel horse stamp in middle Came with a deck in great shape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many folks prefer the cast iron weights’ appearance and damage-resistance compared to the plastic. They are also a bit smaller, physically, than the concrete-filled plastic ones for a given weight. Demand drives price. Edited 3 hours ago by Handy Don 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
