tractornut86 620 #6 Posted December 9, 2018 Shaw is what started it all for Wheel Horse. The Pond family worked for Shaw in early years. Cleaned points and good gas and runs pretty good. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is 3 other Shaws in the collection but over past 20 years of collecting we sold around 15 more Shaws. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,130 #11 Posted December 9, 2018 Thanks for the Pond history lesson, reminder. I forgot they worked for Shaw. Gonna have to break out my copy of Martino's Straight From the Horse's Mouth now, to see what else I've forgotten. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The R6 is little larger do to the model ZZ Briggs compared to the Model 14 Briggs in the R5 like mine. They had 16inch rear or 24inch rear tires. They also had an R8 with single cylinder Wisconsin and R12 with 2cyl Wisconsin. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
