CHARGER9AUTO 3 #1 Posted November 21, 2007 I never buy any Wheel Horse tractors the very day first before on Thursday I could not pass up about aquiring the '73 8 HP 4-Speed W / 36" RD deck for $400.00 the Guy handed me the keey for the tractor and says why don't you take her for spin around the fairgrounds so I did. I'd even tested out the 36" deck after that I dismounted the deck and sold it with the front Tach - a - Matic mule box for $75.00 later on during the same day I bought that '67 L-107 Lawn Ranger from Don Kane for $500.00 W / 32" gear driven mower deck two tractors in one day .

nylyon-(Admin) 7,294 #2 Posted November 21, 2007 I would have loved to have taken that 36" RD deck with mule for $75, always missing the good deals.... <_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,352 #3 Posted November 21, 2007 Are you talkin about the WH Show? I find it hard not to bring a tractor home when I'm tempted from every direction by a red horse that needs a new home. I try to wait till Saturday for the "end of show deal" but I missed out by waitin on a 416-auto that had caught my eye 2 shows ago. I have brought home a "71" Wheel Horse Workhorse 700 and a "83" C-125 auto/hydraulic lift. The 125 was my first hydro WH and I love it! Made me go out and git another...the 418-A. I cant git enough of watchin that big heavy snow chucker going up with the flick of a lever. I used to have it on a manual lift tractor but that'll never happen again . Mike.........

nylyon-(Admin) 7,294 #7 Posted November 21, 2007 My problem is that I need to make it to the show, then I'll probably spend too much time shooting the breeze with everyone, including you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpinnc 12,181 #10 Posted November 22, 2007 I sure wanna be. It's a long trip, but I think it'll be worth it. I may have to come empty handed (as far as tractors go), but I hope to be there! Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpinnc 12,181 #14 Posted November 22, 2007 Ben, Are you saying I should buy one to bring home? It would be cool to find one up there! If I drive my truck, I can fit just one tractor in the bed! But if I bring the trailer- I can carry three or four... Good grief! I'd have to sleep with them when I got them home! Can you say: DADDY WOULD BE LONELY WHEN MOMMY FOUND OUT? I just want to see the show in person, and meet all the folks I've spoken with for years, and especially all the folks in this forum. Maybe pick up a part or three...

Sparky-(Admin) 21,352 #15 Posted November 22, 2007 I usually bring 2 tractors(one for my son and one for my neighbors son to cruise around on) which leaves room for 2 more on the trailer . I'm hoping to bring my D-160 this year for me to ride around as well as the boys tractors so I will be real tight for room. The "D: really chews up the space on the trailer. Mike......
