 This is the best Wheel Horse tractors, attachments and parts Swap Meet of the year -every year. I have been going for five years. It is held in the Mentone, Town Park. About 200 people or more every year. If you have some stuff to sell or need a part this is a great place. Plus you get to meet a lot of Wheel Horse collectors, etc. New parts too!

Gene:      Who sold these last year?   They did not make enough of them and I think this is a good money maker for the swap meet!

Are we going to list items that we will be selling on this thread?

I have a ton of stuff to unload and can get a list started in the next couple of weeks.

Plus I have a few deliveries to make.

I know I will have quite a few decks and snow blowers in all different conditions. May have a few tractors as well.

Hey Guys- I was packing up stuff to bring to Mentone- My Foster son/ Grandson is graduating June 15th and I'm raising funds to give him a good send off. I found a complete Diode charging system for a HH-60 Tecky- I think I have the flywheel too. I borrowed this pic, and contrary to what it shows-I only have one Diode. Is this something anybody would be interested in? Please let me know-Thanks-Al

How far do people drive to get to this?

 

It would be a nearly 4 hour trek for me...

It's a good 3 1/2 hours for me and well worth the trip if you are selling, buying, hungry or just want to start the year off by getting out of the house and meeting quite a few members.  It is an excellent day to start the show season.  :)

 

BTW...I am looking for a "T" throttle cable.  I want to put one on my 857...I am tired of trying to use the Lock type that never works.

Steve,

Won't you need to adapt/change the dash as well?

I don't know Scott...I was thinking I could make it work.  I really need to look at it and throw it out there.  I am just tired of holding out the throttle and plowing snow and turning the blade and lifting the blade and shifting all at the same time.  I need a better way of doing this.  :)  I end up just idling around and that can't be good for the 8 hsp Kohler.

Ok here is what I believe will be on the trailers........

I will not throw out any prices as I need to go through some of the stuff first.

Tractors:

GT 2500

B-111

Possibly a Work Horse

This list of tractors may grow within the next month

Motors:

12 h.p. Kohler

6 h.p. Kohler

Maybe a couple more and/or parts for more

Snowblowers:

Various blowers in all different conditions

Mower decks:

Many different conditions

Hoping to have a few real good ones (42") that are ready to mow

Snow plows:

No long frames available but may have some springs, quadrants, angle levers, and some blades if I have room and there is interest.

Currently working on some other deals and will update the list accordingly.

Pictures will start to trickle in within the next couple of weeks.

I believe my landscape trailer will be a "name your price" sale. I don't want any of it to come home......that means empty!!!

I am willing to deal, so bring cash and let's have fun!

I am about 75% sure I will be there with a p/u truck load of stuff to sell as well as some automatic Foot pedal conversions (WH part 8-3900), snow blower, snow plow, lots of deck blades, couple of old metal seat pans, chrome hub caps and who knows what else by then. Looking forward to it again!!!
