It's a 1977 C160 with a like new 2 stage blower, hydro, hydro lift, 443 hours. The tractor is pretty nice, I think everything is just dirty. I started wiping on it with a shop rag and it looks pretty new underneath. I think it was worth the 900+ mile trip lol.

Nice, the PO must have been a big boy to cream the seat like that.

I had a 75 C-160 Auto but it did not have an hour meter.....just kind of wondering if that was on there from factory. I really don't know.
I saw an image on google that has an hour meter.....

The hour meter was an option, most of them I've seen didn't have one. The 2" plugs we stock are made to fill the hole if it wasn't installed. They are here -

The reason we drove so far to get this was the blower, and for a reason I haven't mentioned yet.
Scott (who owns the Air Horse) bought most of my best personal stuff last week. He's got the fever lol... He got the 520 and 2 stage I've been using, a really nice 60" deck, and a really nice tiller. Paint is real shiny on all of the pieces. He's gonna pick them up when the Air Horse is done.
Rhodes and I have been talking about moving snow for people if we get some. He came up this morning and showed me the NOAA map where we could have 8-14 inches coming on Wed, and another big storm coming in Friday. I'm blowing, Rhodes is plowing, and Sandra is staying in the warm truck taking the Vids. :rolling
Rhodes helped me get the new 2 stage off of the 160 and on to one of the other 520's. We're ready to roll.

That's for sure GT, we have some for the regular tractors, just not the 520's.

I agree - that was well worth the 900+ trip. Even if it was just for the "like new" two stage. Congrats
What is with the caster wheels under the two stage skids?
