Well. I now have seen 2 C120's. Mine is just like yours without the hydrolics. I repained it about 10 years ago and it needs a new coat. Hope to have it repainted before the Florida Flywheelers show in Avon Park. Currently working on a Bronco 14 with a sickle blade. Should have it drivable soon as the carburator needs rebuilding and it want idle.

I have my grandson hooked on the Wheel Horses.

E that sorry old tractor sure is a site now!

By the looks of the pictures you have several "Horse" projects going on in the background.

Is the new garage filling up?

Thanks again for the before & after pics...brings back a few memories of when & how you aquired it. :thumbs2:

A little more history. I bought that tractor with the intention of doing just what Eldon did. The man I bought it from had the same intentions. Neither the previous owner nor myself could do half the job that Eldon has done. I wish that I had saved the e-mails form the guy who had it before me so he could see it now.

Eldon, you've done justice to that old C120, and I am glad that it wound up in your hands. Thanks for coming back to share it with us (me!)
