My last estate auction find. An impressively built Wheelhorse custom.
ebinmaine posted a topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Well, if you all are into Customs then this is the kind of tractor that would draw your attention at a show for quite some time. I found this purely by accident at the estate auction we went to last Tuesday. I had questioned one of the auction employees about something and he mentioned that there were several other things that he just could not get too. This was one of them. You'll see why in the sequence of pictures below. My honey and I had to do a fair amount of Branch moving and other tractor moving and digging but I just had to get it out of there. It was buried under several inches of pine needles. So deeply that the entire front suspension and steering system was completely in the forest bed. Could have easily been sitting there for two decades or much much longer. I don't know if I'll ever get this thing to move under its own power but it was way too interesting to leave for some scrap metal guy to come pick up. If you see something about this tractor that raises a question, please ask! I have no idea what's what here but I'd love to figure this thing out. Parts that appear to be Wheelhorse... Manual transmission. Appears to only have one shift lever but the axles are longer than any 4-speed I've ever seen. At some point I'll measure them and see if they are 1 inch or 1 and 1/8 inch. The hood is obviously from a late sixties to early 80s. The seat appears to be from the mid-60s because it is the same basic shape as the one that was on my honey's 657. It has the thicker style hubs that were starting to be used in the late 70s and the rear wheels appear to be B or C Series. The front axle was about 10 ft in from that little dirt bank at the edge of the asphalt. This photo is taken AFTER my honey and I pulled 5 to 6 feet. One 6 foot strap on the tractor and one on the nose of the trailer and the come along in between. After resetting three times I had it on the trailer. I'm really looking forward to messing around with this thing over the next few months.- 45 replies
