rjg854 11,703 #1252 Posted May 12, 2018 On 5/5/2018 at 2:49 PM, rjg854 said: I just rustled one out of PA Time for the unveiling of a 1973 16hp Automatic Got a great sounding stack from Jim Kemp, even revved up it's a tolerable sound without ear protection. The PO gave me a lot of extras A complete decal set Headlight bucket and lens Standard piston, head gasket, condenser, points, axle seal Had the hydraulic lift rebuilt by Wheelhorseman The tractor manual and parts list. He wasn't really a Wheel Horse guy so he kinda lost interest in it. The 16hp runs good with no smoke or noises. It's got a new carb and all new filters and oils. Transmission works good and will spin the tires in both directions. Some freshing up by some new paint and those decals, it's going to make a real nice worker. 4 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shallowwatersailor 3,214 #1257 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Just when I thought I was down to a workable number of three (should really be two!) Wheel Horses, along comes a really nice '94 314-8 from another RS member. Finally had a chance today with no rain to drive down and pick it up. The first tractor I have bought in Virginia - that is staying in Virginia! Edited June 1, 2018 by shallowwatersailor 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would love to have one that nice with a nice rear discharge deck for the lake. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ebinmaine 69,681 #1260 Posted June 10, 2018 Well, everyone, I joined this wonderful forum a little over a year ago and became a supporting member last August. Absolutely love the wealth of kindness and information that is available here. I want to thank you all for that. I'm not sure if I've ever been able to post in this particular category before. Today we went to rescue a 1967 657 for my honey. Yes you read that right. She bought it. HER tractor. I say rescue because as you'll see in the picture it is the wrong color. Sort of a dark grass green. Over the next few weeks or months we will change that. More pics to follow in the next few hours 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeacemakerJack 10,743 #1261 Posted June 10, 2018 Congrats to Your Honey on her first Horse—wheel horse of course! I can’t wait to see more pics and to hear the story of this one. What I’ve seen of her work already—she/you are going to do a great job or breathing new life into that beauty! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,542 #1262 Posted June 10, 2018 Good for your honey! When the wife buys the tractor, your in good. 👍 Can’t wait to see more. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 56,697 #1263 Posted June 24, 2018 Had a little traffic delay on I-81 so took advantage of the opportunity to do a mirror shot. This is the 953 that Mike @Mike'sHorseBarn was good enough to sell me. Made it home safe and sound. 2 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacemakerJack 10,743 #1269 Posted July 2, 2018 That is one of the legendary Cubs of all time! Looks like an interesting “race” though. Seems more like they were drafting you rather than following! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
