Seattime on my Wheelhorse C-120

Nice machine. I’m envious.
For several years I leased 350 acres of hunting property. The owner said he had an “old mower” he would bring up that if I got it running and serviced it, I could use it to mow the logging roads and around the house. New front tire, battery, belt and a muffler later, I was in business. It was a C-120 automatic from the early 80s with a front blade and a rear tiller. It was probably $3500 new. That was 20 years ago and I wasn’t knowledgeable enough to be aware of how nice it was. I do know it was one heavy machine. It squatted my half ton pickup. I probably could have bought it for little to nothing. I regret not doing some research on it and trying to buy it. I’ve looked off and on for one since then with no luck.
You know the sayIngs: shoulda woulda coulda, and my favorite, if your aunt had balls, she would be your uncle.

Hehe, reminds me of the Roger Miller song, My Uncle Used to Love Me, but She Died !
