Tim's C-161

Tim has been patiently waiting for me to get started on his that he brought over 2 months ago, thanks Tim.

He and his wife to be Shelli are awesome peeps, Shelli will keep you laughing the whole time you're around her, she's a hoot.

Here are some before pics, getting started on it today.

pretty nice just the way it is....is that the original seat?
:smile2

The seat isn't original, I've never seen one that narrow either.

Been out washing for the past 3-4 hours. Some things look better after a good cleaning and a few things look worse, that's pretty normal though lol.

We have a little more work than we thought on the deck though.

the deck looks better than mine...:smile2 :goodpost

Lol Nappy, we should fix that someday.

This little gal is fighting me every step of the way, but I will win. The front axles have some damage and the wheels just didn't want to come off, then the right rear hub wasn't in the mood to move at all. There are pics of the culprits that ate up the rear seals, speaking of eating someone has been eating on the fuel line lol. I finally got everything off and the shafts cleaned up. The front axles are still usable, considering they're getting a long bushing over them so we can put the tire + wheel setup on the front that is used for the tricycle setup. Gonna be pretty cool .

Also, if you have a headlight kit, clean it out every once in awhile before it catches fire in there. :rolling

nice and more nice..i like that hub puller..........

The previous owner of this C-161 had all the manuals.

She's still fighting tooth and nail lol. I keep telling her I will win but she's not listening. She's a stubborn woman lol.

Exhaust pipe had to be cut out of the engine for the stack setup, all and I mean all of the glue stuck to the steps, not 1 piece stayed on the material and I can't have glue in the blaster, and the steering wheel... >( I'll deal with it in the morning but I did get the pin loose.

The clutch PTO bell is refinished and looks good though.
