"D"- Man 827 #3 Posted November 28, 2013 Welcome to Redsquare, having been a dealer you must have volumes of knowledge, coupled with your willingness to share I'm certain your future visits will soon prove to be more frequent than you may have antisapated, Mark.

micro 3 #4 Posted November 28, 2013 Think I started around 1982 til 90-91.It was great.Got to go to a few update schools and work with some great guys.. One of the best part of the job was , to keep us employed in the winter months , we got to rebuild trade-ins to like new condiction. We went thru each tractor complete. Motor,chassis,mower deck , tranny , even the paint on every piece. Doing this made you learn the unit very well.Great memories growing up.Made me love my Wheelhorse , of course! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

micro 3 #8 Posted November 29, 2013 I still have my 1985 312-8 that my dad bought new and work it year round.I also love B-80 s and have 2 of them. My son ownes a 312-8 and a B-80 also. The only rebuild I had was a 654 that I regret selling years back. My dream horse is a mid 70 s C-160 8 speed so if anyone knows of one let me know. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

micro 3 #11 Posted November 30, 2013 Sure I do. It was a trade in at the dealership I worked at. It was real rough and the owner gave it to me real cheep. I put an 8hp Kolher on it. We had all the decals in stock as well as a new hood.It looked great when I was done.Like I said before ,I really regret letting her go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
