KC9KAS 4,741 #2 Posted May 22, 2014 , and As far as paint....are you talking about a "red" color or something to protect the underside? There are just about as many opinions on Wheel Horse Red as there are colors! Many use Rustoluem brand and use Regal Red, or Sunrise Red, and some actually mix a little of each. Different years/models look a little different in color from the factory, so what ever you like and can work with is the correct color! Use the search box in the top right and you can read hours and hours on just about any Wheel Horse subject. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digger 66 3,488 #3 Posted May 22, 2014 Yep ^ Regal red for the outside & Valspar implement enamel for the part no one sees but you . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,909 #7 Posted May 23, 2014 Should be a tag that has the model number on it...either on the dash tower (under the gauges)...on the side of the dash tower...or maybe under the seat...depending on what year you have. They go from 1968 to 1972...my 1972 is model # 1-0301...1971 is #1-0300...1970 is #1-6051...1969 is #1-6041...1968 is a little weird #1-6931 - 1-6041.
