953 nut 55,226 #27 Posted February 19, 2016 @nylyon, Can we set up a separate section of our gallery to keep these vintage photos in to make them more accessible? If a person is doing a WIKI it would be great to include some of these. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My dad put a rope on that cardboard box and pulled me around. Must have been before I got the Radio Flyer. I remember him pulling it on the carpet down the hallway in the house with it too.

Lane Ranger 10,968 #42 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) My favorite old photo is of my brother David and I in 1961 on our dad's first Wheel Horse tractor -a 1958 RJ ! And Thanks Neil for posting the old photos from the Humprey's Wheel Horse store in Greencastle, Indiana. I know Phil Humphrey and actaully went with him to the Portland, Indiana Tri-State Engine Association swap meet this past Fall. The are still in business as Humprey's Outdoor Power ( http://www.humphreysoutdoorpower.com/ ). I buy my Wheel Horse/Toro parts there that I can still get! They are celebrating there 50th Anninversary this year! This is another Vintage Photo from 1962 with my brother David, sisters Cindy and Connie and me on our dad's 1958 Wheel Horse Tractor! We later had a Covered Wagon we pulled with this horse but I can not find photos of that setup ! Edited February 21, 2016 by Lane Ranger 23 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here is the 552. I think this was the first my dad bought. He discovered WH tractors when his boss, the Chevy dealer owner bought one. From his description I think it was an RJ from late 50s. It had a pull start. Dad went to the local dealer and bought one with a starter. The boss man was jealous so he went and traded tractors! Oh, that kid is me again. I was born in July of '63. So these pics would be probably within a year of that. Great pictures, thanks for sharing them 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like the hood on the RJ got used as a seat a few times, my Suburban and one of the RJ projects in the haymow have that same custom treatment! Love to see that covered wagon some day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TDF5G 2,069 #47 Posted February 22, 2016 These pics were taken about 1998. That's my 1977 B-80 with me and my daughter who is 18 now. I've used this tractor for all my mowing, snow pushing, and yard work for 23 years now. 22 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
