BairleaFarm 340 #1 Posted October 5, 2023 What model is this and whats the add on in front og the gear shift? This is the only picture i have. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,520 #2 Posted October 5, 2023 The add on part appears to be a hydraulic pump maybe? Model identification could be tough without more pictures or information. It has the older style fenders which would make it a 1965 or earlier. But that's right about when that style of hood came out. Flat metal seat like you would see on a 1045 or 854.

Found another picture and it does appear to be a hydro lift. No belt to drive it from what I can see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The belt probably mounts out board of the transmission belt. I like that other Wheel Horse in the second picture. It has the very rare sought after "CRANK START". 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,900 #6 Posted October 5, 2023 Round fender, square hood. 1045, unless it was modified… My kids and I built a look alike during the big rona shutdown of 2020… 3 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are referring to the handle on the front of this tractor ( circled in white ). It looks like a crank start handle on older farm tractors, even some old cars for that matter. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The guy answered back and said he didn't know anything about any of them and they were his dads. Gave a number to call. I want to go check them out just to at least see what hes got and get some feelers on price. 6 minutes ago, Achto said: They are referring to the handle on the front of this tractor ( circled in white ).

Different areas bring different prices. I like to stay around the $200 range for non-runners. Would make an exception to that rule on certain models. A true 1045 might be one of them. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BairleaFarm 340 #19 Posted October 5, 2023 Just now, Achto said: A true 1045 might be one of them. Its funny - I prefer a 6 slot hood over the 7 slot and teh square seat pan over the round fenders. Could just be because that was the style of my 1st WH. As a whole I like all them and it money allowed id probably have everything. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure looks like a 1045 from what I can see of it . I’m curious to see what all the other round hood tractors are .To me it looks like a 701 a 502/702 and a 753 or 854 . Good luck 👍 Edited October 5, 2023 by ACman 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasualObserver 3,408 #21 Posted October 5, 2023 If you're going to look and consider them.... The 701 appears to have the original hidden wheel deck... those are more rare than the tractor itself... and the 701 is pretty desirable... Also ask if the double wide starter belt guard is there. That alone is a $200 part if they have it. 2 hours ago, BairleaFarm said: 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That CRANK on that mule drive jumped out at me. Probably because I made a crank for one of mine that had a broken knob. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I can see I'd be interested in the '65 1045 (only model with a square hood & clam shell rear fenders) Bonus that it has the HY (hydraulic lift) 4 hours ago, BairleaFarm said: And the '61 701 ( first year after the Senior's that they put the engine in the front of the tractor ) There is a lot of one year only items on this model. 2 hours ago, BairleaFarm said: Every one has there favorite style though. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
