js5020 111 #1 Posted March 5, 2014 I'm fairly new to Wheelhorses and have seen a few references here on the forum to these machines but most seem to infer that the posted machines are remade/modified fakes. Were there any real machines made? How many, if someone has that info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #2 Posted March 5, 2014 No there weren't any made as this is not a production tractor. The person that owns this tractor is very talented when it comes to these tractors. I agree it is probably one that should have been built. It is one sweet tractor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
js5020 111 #3 Posted March 5, 2014 Hmmm that's amazing, I seem to remember sales literature when I was a teen, but I could be mistaken. If I remember correctly it was the same piece the builder of the one put up. To bad they never put it into production looks impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,029 #4 Posted March 5, 2014 I wonder if this kit is what was used to make the 595HD? Have never found any other reference to it. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,029 #5 Posted March 5, 2014 The 595 was built with a C-195 and a 520, and TONS of custom parts, including making the hood longer, among other things, then a buddy of his made a fake brochure with the 595 in it, and later a second one was built but left in a very weathered look, this was a ruse a few years ago, had lots of people thinking it was real.

buckrancher 2,679 #6 Posted March 5, 2014 I think the only custom parts was making the hood longer and the lower steering shaft and widing the rear rims everything else was C195 for 520H stock parts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,029 #7 Posted March 5, 2014 Belt guard was made longer, lower dash tower was modded but I don't remember why Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
