mrc 817 #1 Posted January 1, 2012 HI EVERYONE, PICKED THIS C160 UP IN CT. FROM ANOTHER RS MEMBER. MY FRIEND MARK PAINTED THE HOOD AND FENDERS AND ADDED FIVE COATS OF CLEAR, NEW DECALS AND NORMAL MTNC. THE STORY FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS THE TRACTOR HAD BEEN IN STORAGE FOR 19 YEARS. SPINDLE AND STEERING VERY TIGHT. DAVE WANTED A STACK EXHAUST SO LOOKING AROUND THE GARAGE I USED AN OLD HARLEY MUFFLER. EXHAUST SHOP MADE THE 90 DEGREE RADIUS ELBOW. I FABBED A BRACE AND GAVE THE TRACTOR TO MY SON-IN-LAW. HOPE YOU LIKE THE PIC. MIKE IN MASS 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,347 #3 Posted January 1, 2012 Any before pics? Looks great either way. Are there baffles in that Harley muff? Is it loud? Mike........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrc 817 #5 Posted January 1, 2012 hi sparky, minimal baffle in muffler, added some course steel wool. still loud. no before pics. when i got the tractor it had 2 small holes in the hood and 12 small holes in the fender. the story was the holes were from an old cab??? i had my buddy mark fill the holes in and paint. he did a great job!!!!!!!!!! mike in mass.
