inherited c-161 w/attachments, need to sell, need help please!

[jette 22]

i inherited a c-161 plus an array of attachments including snow plow. wheel horse is far from my wheel house. i don't even know what all i have; the 161 has been kept in the garage but the attachments are in a shed and also behind the shed under very heavy plastic covering. some items are easy like the plow. am guessing anything with red paint in the shed is likely a wheel horse attachment but am hoping for insight before i start moving stuff around. there's also a kohler thing that looks like  something i have seen pictures of here - the 161 is not missing this part though so i have no idea about it. need to sell all this fairly quickly while i am still out here with it in central new jersey. can anyone please help advise me?? please check out the pics & thank you for any help!

My father is in Toms River NJ. Not sure if he can use another one or not but you can email him pics and the location. He's like most of us and has trouble resisting the urge of buying another one 

His name is Paul and tell him John sent you

 Very nice tractor!!

 

I can't help you with a price but I'm sure that some one from this site would be willing to do a fair deal with you.

Wow... a bucket list tractor in pristine shape! You were any closer I would be all over that or at least kicking tires and drooling. 

Just looking here with all the attachments I think your in the ballpark of 1500-2000 with the extra motor. The bulk of it for the tractor. Someone has loved that tractor that's for sure. The deck looks like a project but childs play for some here. The plow looks to be in decent shape tho.

I am afraid to ask where in central nj this thing is?  I am kinda tractor heavy...

@c-series dondon 

Here's one for ya. 

[roadapples 6,983]

Very sorry for your loss. Might we know who you inherited it from..

[D_Mac 8,623]

You think thats all original paint guys or do you think its been repainted? Im thinking its been gone over judging by the rest of the attachments and the condition of the muffler. Either way that is a great tractor. I regret selling mine. Santa if you are listening, thats all I want for Christmas !!

[stevasaurus 22,767]

I think it is a re-paint...compare it to the mule drive, but it is a nice job and looks like taken apart down to the frame.  Look at the bolts and nuts, tires and decals.  Need to see in person and all that goes with it.  That spare engine looks like it had the blue paint on it, which means it is a replacement engine from Kohler...that is worth a few bucks by itself...if, if, if.  

   What is the model number of the horse??    

[gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,060]

The ID plate should be under the dash with the model number and serial number stamped into it. The lower box should have the Julian build date.

Man would that look nice next to my C-161! I could have twins!

To answer some of the questions -

franklin township

inherited from my father

c-161 eight-speed

i don't know the story behind the spare kohler - i can take more pics of it, just need guidance what area or detail is most relevant - but yes, there is definitely blue paint on it

the wheel horse has been kept in the garage attached to the house - the attachments have been stored in a shed building - deck has been outside behind the shed and obviously the tarp blew off...3 different environments plus also 3 different lighting scenarios...add to that not a pro photographer wheel horse calendar shoot and heck, i was just glad my pics didn't come out purple

wallfish i will send email tomorrow

@jabelman Sounds like you need to really play up how good you’ve been this year to Santa

I saw your listing, considering the whole package I wish I were clos by, I'd take it in a heartbeat.

This is great buy for someone, I spoke with owners a couple times helping them with general questions about the tractor and what goes with it.

The tractor has been in their family awhile.  The tractor obviously has been well taken care of and stored inside.  The fuel tank is dry, they did not try starting it, the tractor has been sitting for a few years.  I agree with them, I personally would go over everything before firing it up.  The snowplow looks new barely used, the stickers are still on it.  

All this tractor needs is a new good home!
