sparkie333 265 #1 Posted September 22, 2011 Hi all; From a newbe I have been restoring a 1976 C160 that i have had for about 12 years. I will post pictures of the rebuild later---it has been from the frame up. I have enjoyed doing this but it has been hot for me to do much to it this summer. I have been checking RS out and find a lot of info. here. I find that you all enjoy helping each other out--- i like this a lot-- that is what it is all about. sparkie333__________________ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparkie333 265 #5 Posted September 22, 2011 Got to love the C160--in the 12 years i'v had it--- realy no problems. and as for as the auto tran. and auto lift works like it should every time. Everything was ok with the tractor it just needed cleaned an a little tlc. So i thought i would take it down to the frame and clean it up and paint it. Just needed seat, safty switches light bulbs ect. I can't say enought on how tough this tractor is. I mean u can ride this horse hard all day long and it wont quit on you, get up next day and do it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparkie333 265 #12 Posted September 23, 2011 Ditto nice looks too--It just looks right [ballanced] ------------- Like i said in a prev. post i just like finishing up a few ods & ends. One things that comes to me is that i have seen somewhere in a past post ---- someone said they had some non skid meteral for the foot grip area. Does any one remember who or where? I will try to post some pictures as soon as i can of my redo of my C160. Just picked the new seat up today---and i still need to put the new decals on it. I made sure i had them before i started. :thumbs2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
