1975 C-120 purchase

Recommended Posts

608KEB

I bought this C-120 auto about a month ago It came with a 42" snow thrower and a 48" deck that are in good condition. It starts, runs really well. The lights work. The attachments work great. I would say it's in fair cosmetic condition no dents, but hood and fenders are scratched up and the foot boards have some surface rust. It was a 2nd owner, He had it since 1985. I had to fix a few odds and ends. I replaced both hubs and ground the keys to fit. I now have about $750 in it. Is this a o.k. deal or did I get taken for a ride?

For all the attachments that came with it...sounds, and looks like you got a pretty good deal to me. :thumbs: :thumbs:

Around here that's a fair to good deal.

It's hard to find a decent "C"series for less than $1000.

And snow blowers go for anywhere from $50 to $1000!

Looks like it is in good condition so I would say it is a good deal. You can spend a lot of time and money on a machine in lesser condition.

If the seat has not rips that is even better.

The seat could use some repair. the back tires are great, front tires have just a liitle weather cracking. We have probably all been there, when the person selling the tractor tells you it's in really good conditon. It's hard to tell sometimes by the pictures in the ad. So you drive 150 miles one way and find out what the seller said is subjective.

Yep, I've been there too, and I'm pretty sure they know it's hard to walk away at that point.

Looks like a nice tractor! With the deck and blower your doing OK. The Blower and Deck are hard to find and when you get one luck is on your side, especially when in good condition. I agree, the pics on add can make the item look like its in better condition than it really is.
