I've got three, the newest one I use all the time is a 1975 12HP C series. You wouldn't believe the abuse that has stood over the years - it's a real tank! I'm probably going to have to fabricate a new 36" deck for it this winter. I redesigned & renewed all the spindle bearings last spring, but the welds onto welds onto welds onto welds on the rest of the deck are all about to give way. I could use a good 48" deck I have, which only needs one new set of spindle bearings, but it's too tricky to drive around all the fruit trees my missus has planted in the lawns. I heartily recommend the C series Wheelhorses especially the Hi-lo 8 speeders - have no experience of the hydrostatic ones - it's too much like magic for me (I never did understand fluid mechanics)
