Nice find!!! ty😊 ...as to a shed...lol, i cant swing that, rightnow But i have a list. Its under 10 Horses long. Because of my lifestyle, Currently, im sticking to that List. Once i acquire those, we'll see. But that is a looong ways off. I think i can get by with just a lean to on my garage...for my Jeep, a trailer (when i get that far too, lol). Horses n 'tack' will get the garage. Priorities 😉😂 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D_Mac 8,593 #8 Posted April 22, 2020 12 Horse Ale is brewed here in Rochester. A product of Genesee Beer. Maybe they should change it to 12hp Ale !! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RJR49 129 #9 Posted April 22, 2020 I love my C-160 Hydro. Don't know why you would want an 8 Sp. Check the plate the transmission bolts to. It's probably cracked. The mount for the seat may be too. Those are the weak spots. Not bad for machines nearly 50 years old. As an aside, I modified Matt's foot pedal to work on a C series. The C series is easier because you don't have to take anything apart. If your interested I will send drawings. It can be done with hand tools but it's a lot easier with a milling machine 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
