They do breed.

  The widow of a friend  and fellow club member who passed away recently, phoned me tonight to ask if I knew anyone who would be interested in his Wheel Horse and trailer. So in the morning they are going to be introduced to their new owner to be. ME!  With no objections from SWMBO. 

   Bit of rearranging to do in the workshop to make space for the tractor before they're brought home in a couple of days or so.

 

 To be continued.

Is the steering wheel on the left or the right??  Sorry Norm, I think a lot of that is going to be happening in the near future.  It is happening to me also.

Just found a photo' of it making friends with The Black Horse.

My condolences for the loss of the friend... 

 

My congratulations for the gain of a VERY nice Horse.  

 

Looks like what would be our stateside 74-77 B or C series with an 8 HP Kohler?

Sorry to hear of your friend Norm… and congrats on a nice machine!

Well said.

I think that the previous owner would likely want his machine to find a home with other horses that are loved and treated well. 

 

As Eb said, my condolences and congratulations as well.

Sorry for your loss of a friend and your gain of a tractor. Enjoy your new ride. I think he would have wanted it this way.

 That's what his widow more or less said. She was pleased I  was having it. I'm calling it Eddie in his memory. 

 

Going off the serial number it's a 1974 B80.  1-0140B80. Road registered in 2015. The trailer is a single axle Saxon. I have one of those already. So one or the other will be sold on.

There are a few Yankees over here who collect trailers like women collect shoes. I only have 3

No worries mike. I understand that logic.

We have the one that I normally use. The one that Trina normally uses. I have 4 ((??))  that are in states of disassembly. We also have the log splitter which kind of qualifies as its own trailer.

I have one promised to me like that, hope it's a long time before I get it.

That is great you own something in his making and memory.
