http://www.farmshow.com/a_article.php?aid=14042 > This may have been posted before but check out the crazy Wheel Horse tractors from this old Farm Show. "This group of 10 Wheel Horse tractors, put together by Ohio resident Charlie Melton, is one of the most unusual tractor collections we’ve ever seen. Every one of the tractors has received a radical “makeover”. “I like to recycle things and enjoy the challenge of making something different without spending a lot of money,” says Melton. “I buy Wheel Horse tractors in junked-out condition so I get them cheap. I put new engines in them and usually new tires, too, and paint them with the original Wheel Horse red and white colors. All the tractors in my collection were originally built in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. The manufacturer kept the same grille for all those years so all my tractors have a common look.” Melton credits David Cross of Bainbridge, Ohio, for supplying him with Wheel Horses.
