Hammerhead 817 #1 Posted October 22, 2009 I had some of my Wheel Horses at my local Farm Days Tractor Show and a lady asked me if I wanted her old Wheel Horse, she said it was a C12 or something, she didn't know. She bought a house from the original owner, an old lady. She said she'd leave her beloved WH with the home and that it ran good. The new owner tried to start it, but it didn't make a noise. So she figured it was junk. I asked how much she'd take for it and she said $25.00!! So I went and got it FAST! I got it running in no time and it runs and mows great! The Hi and Low Range tranny is sweet! Another one for the pile! Too bad I can't figure out how to post a pic!! Any help out there???? Thank You..KJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammerhead 817 #6 Posted October 22, 2009 :scratchead: This is my first pic, hard to navigate this place so far. I've been collecting WH's and other brands as well, for 25 years! I have a few Cub Cadets, Copar Panzers, Rugg, Springfield, a Bantam and some other stuff. I've sold off a few of my off brand tractors but the WH's rule around here! I live near Columbus Ohio, in Sunbury just north of the big town. I have pics posted on other sites but this one seems pretty hard. Glad to be here though! When I was a kid, we had a big 953 that had several attachments that came with it. I was in charge of mowing for the most part. So I figured I had to find one of those tractors but found a 704 first and bought it for $20.00 from a guys front yard, it was his lawn ornament! It took me awhile to find a 953 but a few other Horsies found their way in first. I decided to officially have a big collection of these tractors and I thought the only way to have a good collection was to have one of every Model Year made, up to a point of the tractors weren't that rare any more, maybe 1980's. Little did I know how many different Models they made!! Sheesh, did I go over board or what?! Thanks for the welcome, good to be around some WH buddies!
