Norlett 3 #5 Posted January 8, 2016 My Norlett is based on a the 8hp Wheel horse model...I bought it in a rough condition a few years ago at a show. Then got the bug.Yes we show them at a few shows over the year. Just at the moment we have at home only two Lawn Rangers..A Raider 10.And the Norlett. One of my sons got several Horses (Meadowfield) look him up..Hes made a Four wheel drive one..And a bendy..(click on youtube) Any stickers you might require hes the man. We have a big Wheel horse round up at Newby Hall Ripon.11/12 June..Might be twenty or thirty there...Well worth visit.. Good luck with your project. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meadowfield 2,593 #16 Posted January 9, 2016 Well, I'm sure you will get plenty of interest. There's a lot of us that would kill for a chance to own some early round hoods! I'd watch James if I were you he just wants to lay his hands on more horses! As we all do.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
