McSterritt 17 #1 Posted May 4, 2019 Hello everyone, I've been reading the forum for a few months or so and finally decided it was time to say hello. I've had a love for Wheel Horse tractors since I was young and my father had one. I've never really had a need for one until recently when my wife and I bought our first home. So the search began and I found myself a 1995 520H that was in pretty rough shape but everything that was important (engine, hydro) seemed to work. Anyway... The "restoration" has begun and I have to say I'm pretty excited. I'll post some pictures of how it looked when I got it and I'll throw some pictures of what I've done so far over on the restoration side of the forum. Thanks everyone for all the great information!

JAinVA 4,619 #4 Posted May 4, 2019 (edited) If you have been lurking around here for a few months then you are probably aware that WHs reproduce on their own. In a few months there will be more of them around your spread.Most of my 520 herd don't look as good as yours and I would not give up on any of them! Welcome to a truly friendly and helpful website.
