No more room for anything around here. I have a bit of hoarding tendencies.. Need any Plumbing material or tools ? That sounds like a GREAT idea but I am not sure if this will be my last restoration ?????? Most likely. Thanks for the tip Kev

Unfortunately, online auctions attract a lot of bidders and they have plenty of time to obsess over items. This was the only Wheel Horse item in the auction, so it didn't draw a ton of attention. I wasn't able to be online during the bidding, so I put a max bid of $100 out there. Won it for $90.

I have one that is blue with no red. What appears to be red on the tongue is actually rust.

Custom Hub Caps "maybe"

Nice one's are becoming somewhat rare. I have 6 or 7 sets on all my tractors except the 1977 C-120. Paint them up they will look nice. -
Awesome stuff! Plunge why don’t we have these parts to strip in an e-tank? That’s the cat’s meow for pulling parts of any sort down to bare metal.

What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse
sqrlgtr replied to rjg854's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
@Razorback you get a chance to test springs out yet? -
I popped a couple 1/4” holes in the front corners, just for that reason Great score! I nabbed mine at a local on site estate auction for $5, I was the only bidder. While I was basking in my glory of a great pick, someone had weaseled a front mount RJ sickle mower around a corner for the same single bid.

Well, it holds water, so there's that.

To answer you source question, Little Red Barn bought out I Save and is a reliable source. https://www.ebay.com/str/lilredbarnpowerequipmentsupply Safety switches will not cause your problem, please do not molest them! Have you been using gasoline that has alcohol in it, if so STOP that stuff deteriorates fuel systems. you can find a gas station that sells alcohol free gas at this website. https://www.pure-gas.org/. Place the shift lever in neutral and block the rear wheels to be sure the tractor will not move while you are working on it. Starting at your gas tank, clean and/or replace the fuel shut off valve and its screen, replace your fuel lines and filter and be sure fuel flows freely from the tank to the end of the hose where it connects to the fuel pump. After the fuel line has been connected to the pump turn the engine over to see if the fuel is being pumped out, if not then inspect the pump. If a kit is needed contact Then and Now https://www.thenandnowautomotive.com/antique-auto-parts-store/AC-4S-K-Kohler-Fuel-Pump-Kit-p816753504 or consider using a low pressure electric pump. Once the fuel pump is working then the carburetor is the next place to go. The cheap aftermarket units are generally unsatisfactory, rebuilding the one you have is not difficult. Hope this has been helpful.

July 31, 1970 Black Tot Day: the last day of the officially sanctioned rum ration in the Royal Navy, which started in 1740.

I use them in my shed and place broken up skins around entry points and other inconspicuous places. Traps are also set and the catch rate has dropped dramatically since placing the skins.

Do you still have this for sale?

Going to be 68 in Feb. I retired in 2020 after 3 straight years of surgeries and then Covid. Went back to work 2 days a week in the fall of 2022 at the hospital I had been at for 14 years prior. It got bought out by a large University health system and they are just making things difficult to get anything done. so I figured it was time.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
kpinnc replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Agreed. I've grown quite annoyed with the "burnt" smell of my house, and since no repairs have happened yet it definitely lingers. I'm hoping the brush pile burning won't be anything like the smells in and around my house. Insylation, wiring, and the glue in plywood most definitely stinks! Either way you are correct: in time these things will pass! -
I had no idea we could buy those off ebay... But of course we can! How do you use them? Place them around the outsides of buildings? Something else? And do they also work to keep snakes outside, where they belong?

You probably won't want the smell of it for a while, but that will pass. Time really does heal but some things take longer than others. Been there and done that. -

Back in the late 70's my brother was convinced that pro wrestling was legit, so I got tickets to an event in Portland. I tried to explain to him that it was fake. During every match he was telling me they hate each other and that's why it's so violent. After it was over we went out to the car and lit up a doobie. While we were standing there the wrestlers came out. They were all walking together and laughing. We heard one of them say "let's hit the bar and spend some of that money we made off all those fools". My brother never watched pro wrestling again. -
Making good progress on the 420. A LOT of hours into it at this point removing the paint on the sheet metal. If WH had used primer it may have come off a little easier ? on this series tractors.Letting things set up before reassembly. Hoping to have it somewhat ready for the September Meet & Greet. Those chrome mylar decals take some patience to remove.Some before and after pics.
