If you spray a little Ospho or other "Rust Converter" on the rims the brown will go away and the almond/beige will shine through. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacemakerJack 10,738 #1897 Posted May 21, 2020 What a score Kevin! when you get a chance, could you take a couple of detail pics of the two furrow plows that you picked up and post them in the plowing thread? Wheel horse used several different variants over the years and it would be good to have details about those as well as the Brinly and Ohio Steel models. Can’t wait to see what your plans are with this haul... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,189 #1898 Posted May 21, 2020 What about the two bottom plow, you would be the talk of all the plow days with that mounted to the back of the GT-14. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the instructions for a bed liner are to scuff the paint. Two birds... one stone! Just add bed liner some day! 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
