C160 original paint tractor

Recommended Posts

Hello All, 

I picked up this C160 this evening. Ran last about 5 years ago. Not sure of the year. The paint appears to be original. I’ll get it cleaned up in a couple days and re-post pictures.

Excellent find!

 

Great candidate for a refresh cleanup and put it to great work.  

 

Interesting muffler choice. Looks like it's from a mid 80s model. 

 

I'll be looking forward to seeing how this one turns out!

Nice find. Not an original side decal on the hood though.

Beat me to it. Might be original paint, but someone put newer decals on it for whatever reason.

The rear decal appears to be correct and I can spot a repaint pretty easily so either someone replaced all the decals and serial number plate and all fasteners that perhaps the hood has been repainted or replaced. Might have been the notorious paint burn off from the muffler location that most have.
