Long story short, my son has loved WH’s since my father in law gave him a 211-4 when he was 7yrs old. He is 15 now and has since acquired a 1970 Charger 12 and a 1988 312-8. He got both of these for under $500 and they were in rough shape when we bought them. A used sunstrand hydro pump and a set of new valves later we will be able to use both this mowing season! He saved all of his chore money for parts/tires for his WH’s. I’m real proud of my son and now I’ve got the WH bug!! My grand parents had a 520h when I was younger and that is my next target. Anywho, here’s some pics.

The new Arkansas horses on display for SIDE SHOT SATURDAY!!!! Thanks David we love them!

Side shot with a tiller.

Sorry, I just saw this. I love seeing all of your tractors.

So, why not keep it going then?

Some recents. It’s still Saturday, right?

@JCM a couple for you with the blower..

My new to me 417-A at the sellers place before I picked it up.

It’s now turned into side shot Sunday!

I finally got my new to me 417-A home and all put away in my shed. I think I'm going to use it as a dedicated mower and stop using the 520-HC because the 520 doesn't like the heat. Here's the thread before I picked it up:

The twins

Got out into the woods today for a short cruise....

The 520-H and the C-120/180.

Great thread, here’s my 1990 520 that’s been rebuilt with 89-94 parts It’s kinda a mutt but still all

Tried to mow a little today with lRV and it's too wet still!

It’s looking like most of our spring shows will be canceled due to the virus. :(( Maybe even the summer shows. I worked all winter getting this years line up ready to take to the shows. Let’s (at least) have a virtual “on line” show. Please post pics of what you had planned to take to the shows this year.. Please post your own tractors. My collection is mostly Custom Modified. Here is my line up for this year. I Will miss seeing all my friends even more than I’ll miss seeing the tractors. :(( Please post pics?!?! Even if it’s only one.

Weights on!

Home from my trip. It was more miles than I care to say.😁😁 i picked up LR2 a Toro GMT also made 7-8 stops along the way. I bought a set of 953/1054 inside wheel weights on 12-31-19, Well it was talking much to long for the PO to ship them from WI. Well knock knock I’m here, bet he wasn’t thinking I would do that.🤪🤪🤪 Nice meeting you @stevasaurus and Mrs. Stevasuras, she makes a great bowl of chilli. thanks to all that had a part in my trip dont forget the box

Great thread @Sparky I might as well put a few more on here, some real nice pics showing up from the members.

It's a great father & son hobbie. My son and I restored the 312-8 when he bought his first house.

Had a little help last night cleaning out the tight spots on the engine before paint. He spent quite a bit of time with me in the garage yesterday. It was really nice having him work with me!

1st is the '71 Bronco14; 1st WH i bought. 2nd is my '92 312-8; 1st day i saw it, in '17. The 1st Wheel Horse that was/is mine, that my Dad found n gave me, which started all this for me, though ive been around Horses my whole life, as that's what he has always owned...

Do ya need something to look at instead of Covid-19 news, fake news and general drama? If you answered yes then post up your side shots!

Just became owner of a 1971 GT 14. I grew up on a farm in Iowa with lots of tractor experience. Now a sailing captain with some experience on diesel engines. Love the old wheel horses and ran across this GT 14. Tractor appears to be original but has some issue. Posting the picture....sure it will get some chuckles...or groans....previous OP must have been a Dukes of Hazzard fan! Would appreciate a shout out from GT 14 experts as I have some issues to deal with. Looking for more of a work tractor at this point.... Thanks!

Awesome idea Barry! Those chrome caps on the black round hood, I thought I was looking straight through the wheels!

C-160 with new skins!

First born and Jr.!!

Thinking it's time to add 1 more pic before I miss the midnight cut-off for submitting to this thread. This pic is not any of my tractors but another member who lives north of me and someone who loves WH tractors along with his honey as much if not more than anyone of us. Good night Eric & Trina and stay safe through all of this and this goes to all the RS members and family.

I put Lawn Trac R1 AGs on 4 corners (16x7.50-8 and 23x10.50-12) of my Anniversary 520H blower rig.

People have asked me why I have so many Wheel Horses and in all honesty there’s many reasons. Number one is that they have been in my family since I was a kid and it may sound weird but they have become part of my life! My dad had one and I got my first one when I was 14. I really didn’t start collecting until I was in my twenties, since then I’ve amassed 18. Believe it or not I’ve inherited two, had one willed to me by a neighbor who I hardly knew. Two were given to me by older gentleman that knew I would give them a good home. Of course I’ve purchased quite a few. Second reason is the simplicity and durability of these great little tractors that keeps them going for years and years. Third is the thrill of the chase!! Even though I’m almost out of storage room I can’t help looking! Forth, Red Square! The people here are so nice and we all have a common interest in sharing the enjoyment these tractors bring us👍

Take it apart and check it good for grass clippings. It will be holding so much more than you think it can. I got mine last year for a song, when I got it home I pulled 10lbs of crap out of it. Great tractor, I have an 48 in deck and mow just over 2 acre with it. Mines a 16 but basically same tractor.

Added Sunday to the thread title.....KEEP ON POSTING FOLKS! Lovin’ all the pics....from rusty wrecks and projects to meticulously restored and customs

This is as far as I have made it

No knickers twisted here. It could have stayed as long as necessary. My Kohler sign can ward off Tecky cooties for eons.

Here are a few of my "Red" tractors....
