Jason Miller 24 #1 Posted October 19 Hey guys just need help with a ballpark number. Auction right by my house and he has 2 wheel horses. Would really like one for a garden tractor to use around the house. Here is pics. I’ll be checking them in person tomorrow. Have no clue what to bid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moonshine*Connoisseur 435 #2 Posted October 19 They both look to be in very nice shape. I wouldn't be scared to bid up to $400 on each. If you go above $400 then it's a matter of how bad do you want that particular model. Check them over good, I see the first one has a newer magnum engine on it. Someone did care for them as clean as they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 38,158 #3 Posted October 19 I would pay $150 for any Wheel Horse. If they start, run, and drive, the price easily doubles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #4 Posted October 19 The 8 hp looks to be a 867. All orginal possibly. I would go 4 - 450 on that runs & drives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The hood decals are correct, but installed incorrectly. Also can’t see if it has a high/low shifter. My T867 came to me with a swapped transmission. I assume the PO busted the differential and just swapped in something else. Of course now I always look for that… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 9,136 #6 Posted October 19 B-100 looks like a K-Series with a coil, not a Magnum @Moonshine*Connoisseur 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jason Miller 24 #8 Posted October 21 Did yesterday the one has some smoke. It’s a 6 speed with high low range. The other hydrostatic . I was thinking 1,000 for each to much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 8,690 #9 Posted October 21 1000 each is definitely too much, maybe for both. Just my two cents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #10 Posted October 21 (edited) 800 for both... Edited October 21 by WHX?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason Miller 24 #11 Posted October 21 One is b 100 not sure on the other looks close to my 856 but says six speed on side has a high low range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason Miller 24 #12 Posted October 21 Can’t get the pic sent on the other. yes one has a high low range like my 866 very similar. Smokes blue not sure if that’s fixable. the other is hydrostatic both were redone over great shape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be cautious that it wasn’t just a paint job. Chain the hydro to a tree and see if it will spin the wheels to test it b 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,620 #18 Posted October 21 @Jason Miller looks like worth making an offer , on the engine smoke issue , first thing I regularly do on any unknown engine is to run it in on fresh fuel with KROIL IN THE FUEL , no screaming engine , amazing varnish / crud cutter , overall look see , pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason Miller 24 #19 Posted November 1 Update on the sale! Both sold for $650 each. Little high for me especially one smoking and the other not testing the hydrostatic. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
