another new horse for me

[Jake Kuhn 1,555]

Hey everyone, Got another horse today. One of my dad's friends ended up dropping a c120 off at our farm when I was at a baseball game last night. It is a c120 8 speed if someone could tell me the year from the picture of the serial tag that would be great. It runs great just needs a few things fixed on it and it would be a great. Motor runs perfect on it. Came with a deck and a blower. Blower looks perfect but deck needs some work. Here are some pictures. Jake

I wish someone would "drop off another WH" to me! I love the "Hot wheels" MAG deck wheels!! almost like my old Keystones!

:scared-eek: That's ridiculous, no one ever just drops off a at my house for me! That just aint right. I'm a sucker for the long hoods Jake, so is this one going to get the full meal deal, like the others did?

Thanks for all the nice compliments. Got the oil changed in it today and got the filter out so I can get a new one on monday. This is one really nice tractor. My only question is when I put it into gear I have to pull the clutch out to make it drive,is this just how the 8 speeds were or do I have something wrong with mine? Jake

[bowtiebutler956 650]

Sounds like you have a bad return spring.

Matt, I think this one is going to be a worker. I think I will get a good deck for it and give it a shot at mowing and it can replace the 401 for snow duty. Always wanted a tractor with a blower and this one will be a nice fit just need some chains and weights. Jake

Nice lookin tractor... I like the stance of that model...

[Wheel-N-It 2,969]

That looks like a really good solid tractor Jake. You must be living right to have someone drop off a Wheel Horse like that one for you:)

Oh yea, I'm with Matt. You probably have a bad return spring.

i had 3 mower decks with holes also instead of doing alot of welding i just cut out the bad areas an wire meshed it along with fiberglass . after it hardened up it was hard as stone painted it looked like new . put extra coat of fiberglas an resin/ hardner it may sound silly but it works very well and easy to do no welding .
