RandyLittrell 3,884 #1 Posted December 2, 2022 My son bought this C-160 8 speed this summer and never got around to putting pics up. It seems pretty non-molested and has a nice patina, hope I can convince him to keep it original! It can't come in the shop till he gets his CC 784 project off my workbench!! I think he thinks I am gonna do it all for him!! I also needed to put these pics here to prove @ebinmaine hasn't got ALL the C160's out there!!!!

Your son needs help, if he can't understand that yellow has been known to cause Increased irritability. Increased anger. Heightened levels of aggression. Heightened sense of agitation. then it is time to step in. Make your son aware that the color red with it's vibrant, dynamic energy affects us on a physical level. It's the color that raises the pulse rate, getting us excited, motivated, we can get a sense that we are stronger, having more drive and stamina. 4 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is red though, 784's had KT 17 seriesII with dual hydraulics, it will be a beast when done!!! I know you are chain pulling and I can take it!!! You do admit to being a nut!!

I do enjoy the time with my son, my Dad was my best friend, but he is gone now and I cherish any time I spend with my kids. Plus, he give me two grandkids!!!!! I think he only paid about $150 for it, which is a steal where I live. Randy 3 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,637 #13 Posted December 2, 2022 @RandyLittrell nice looking unit , only a suggestion , aerosol lubricant spray down , let sit / soak in a day , wipe it down till dry with a clean lubricant dampened cloth , let it sit . do that again , next wipe down will show a deeper paint , and an oil soaked finish . like a permanent wax job. think about it , its been sitting in that state for ? very little effort to help its return. have brought pack paint like that to a deep clear finish , the opportunity to do things is there , hope you find a few , pete 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
