7 Wheel Horse

[dotcomdz 49]

I went to buy a cultivator for flower beds and end up with 7 WH's, 2 Lamberts, 1967 craftsman 4spd custom, a large green metal flake fiberglass custom built and 4 tillers. 

So my question here as I am new. I would like to get rid of all the WH's except the Raider 10. Idk what to even ask for them so could I get some input?

So far every machine I have worked on runs good, cuts as expected etc. They were owned by a collector so they were driven into his barn and parked for years.

I am located in greenville ohio so if anyone has answers, questions or suggestions greatly appreciated

That's one heck of a cultivator run!!  Looks like some nice tractors.

That collector had no aversion to verticals, apparently.  I have no idea how well they ran, but that A100 had its own unique looking appeal, imho.  Quite the insta-collection that,  anyhoo - not too shabby at all.  Keeping the Raider-10 seems a good choice, all else being equal.

Very nice.

Sounds more like a hoarder than a collector in my opinion, that being said you picked up some good looking s. Air up the tires, give them a bath and take some pictures with a desirable background. Figure out what you want to ask for each one and post them for sale in out classified section, it is free.https://www.wheelhorseforum.com/classifieds/for-sale/

 @dotcomdz!  Nice haul!  How about a line up of your machines and attachments once you get them home?  The vertical shaft engine machines are not quite as desirable to most, but are still  tough compared to other lesser box store brands of the day.  You may find that having a couple extra runners handy for various chores are worth it!  That!s why at 30 or so, I can’t figure out which to sell!

Ok thank you so much. I know about stuff because I'm a tinkerer etc. Don't look at stuff and say oh Lowe's or machine shop I figure it out and fix it. I could tell if I hadn't got them they would have been cleared out and stuck behind a barn or something. Until this I never even really knew of wheel horse or lambert. These machines are right up my alley because of all the gears and pulleys and grease gun needed and a little oil tin with some heavy weight gear oil go around them like the tin man 😍😍 that's why they have to go or I will be building a WH storage building 🤷🤦🤣 

The two Lamberts and the IDKWTF but it's way cool made in greenville by some company I call the Green Goblin

Wow!! I really didn't need to see that thanks!! Because I love those such cool lines here is some pics of the 600 and 666

I love the look of those Lamberts. The look of those rear fenders and the rake of the front grill make them look like they are going 100mph. Here are photos of mine when I dragged it out of a field. I had the mower deck as well but it's not in the photos.

That's amazing transformation 😍

If you search in here there is a thread of the transformation.  I was in way over my head. Had a lot of help from here. I was proud of how it turned out even though I was in way over my head. The tranny was main issue. Looked like it was at the bottom of the sea for 20 yrs. Once I was able to free it up it came together nice.

I'm lucky so far both tool boxes intact, both seem pretty much all there someone did some work on them. I only have the one deck and it has one shaft sticky other than that all I did was remove tanks and bowls clean them up and vroom

D_Mac in your opinion if I list the Lambert 600 with deck in what appears to be 100% all there original parts. You have seen the pictures what do you think I should list it for 🤔

[D_Mac 8,611]

Hard to say. It's going to be a collector who appreciates it and buys it. They most likely won't spend top dollar. Mine I broke even on only because I got the tires for free. Mine sold for 400. Hope that helps you. If I were you I would keep them. You won't find one again.
