RevvedUpRider 0 #1 Posted April 20 Hello all, I need some help trying to identify an wheelhorse I have. The model number on the tag is 5-2322 which comes up as a 1969 32" deck. No other tag to be found. Has anyone ever seen one of these. It has a 7 horse kohler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1977 6,660 #4 Posted April 20 if it's a 1969 m0del it could be a " Work Horse 700 or a Commando V7" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 17,000 #10 Posted April 20 Pretty sure that steering wheel is 68-69 but square hoods aren't my specialty. I'm going with 1968 or 69 Commando 8 but maybe, just maybe it's possible it's a repowered 500 special since it's a 7hp Kohler. Those Teccy engines just didn't last as long and don't think WH powered anything with K161 past 1964. Sad if one of those 500 specials were painted over but,,, Tag is probably painted over too so take a good look on the hood stand for it. That will settle it for sure. Definitely not a 70's tractor with that hood. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevvedUpRider 0 #11 Posted April 20 (edited) The ID tag pictured is the one under the dash. I do not have the deck to it. And the tag is original. But the number came up as the mower deck. I have read some where that wheel horse made a few Economy tractors that had no model number. Didn't know if there was any truth to it.
