10 horse Kohlers are some smooth runners for sure! A really good one must purr like a kitten!

 

I think the 65-67 tractors were the best lookers! With the 78-79 C-series in a close second!

 

Absolutely excellent herd you have there! :thumbs:

Thanks for the reply, Pullstart. This was in my better days. But nothing gives me more joy than working on these tractors. It is #1.

Thanks for the reply, Kpinnc but HAD them. Made a mistake and sold them off. Wrong move. But I still like going back and looking at them.

They don't "have" to be pretty, they have to "function" correctly.  Some people like them looking shiny and new, while others like them rusty and sweaty.  And still others like them somewhere in between.  Some even like horses a different color altogether. Then even some chop them and make other things out of them. There's no right or wrong, it's yours do as you please.  The only thing most of want is to Honor the tradition that is WHEEL HORSE.  :flags-usa:

But the memories endure, both for you and now the rest of us. As it should be. :thumbs:

AHS: Thanks for reply.  When I was working, I had a tin knocker make the pans for the seat. And had a upholster redo the seats. I have seen on F/Book marketplace someone sells the covers I believe. For rips in seats, I clean them really well and use Gorilla tape. It helps to blend in but not perfect.
